HI All,
Here are a couple of blades I completed today.
First one is a double edged dagger with functional saw teeth on either edge base. Blade length is 4 inches and the profile is compact enough to be carried concealed in a boot.
Second knife is a clip point with an experimental false(unsharpened) secondary bevel on the spine.
Both blades are tool grade steel with brushed finish and wooden grips.
Please have a look... comments and suggestions are welcome..

Wow! The second one is by far the best looking DIY knife i have seen on this forum!
Only one suggestion, make an awesome sheath to go with it and then trade it with me

A.D., the rate at which you are churning out these knives makes me wonder if you haven't a secret knife making factory you aren't telling us about! Going green with envy, bro, I am !!
And I'll stop using terms like "awesome", "stupendous", et al for you - you make these adjectives so common!!

Thanks everyone! glad you liked the blades.
@essdee1972: well essdee bhai, no clandestine knife factories here! I am just someone with a slightly extremist bent of mind , who loves weapons, tinkering and has a lot of free time at hand (which will soon end as I return to the 9to5 grind. ).A.D., the rate at which you are churning out these knives makes me wonder if you haven't a secret knife making factory you aren't telling us about!
