I picked up one of the ones that caught Woodsheal's eye, as well as a slightly larger one, with a more squared off full tang. The first photo shows the two of them between a couple of other unfinished projects.

The second shot is just those particular blades with the rough cut elk antler scales I'm going to put on them.

I think I may suffer from "project related ADHD", seems like I've always got a bunch of irons in the fire. At current count, I have at least 6 knives in various stages of completion. There are also a couple of powder horns, straps for same, stock repair on a flintlock rifle for my son and an old set of pipes I'm trying to fit reeds to and get up and running. No worries about being bored by spending too much time on any one thing, I guess.
All skill and effort is to no avail when an angel pees down your drones.
