 A little more REACH!!! HI While carving the walkingsticks I found that my knife handle keep getting in the way of carving the eyes because of the need to make the under cuts so i made this little knife it has about 1/4" off set from the handle and a 1" blade i used it on a few of the eyes and like it very well.Its made out of a power hacksaw blade.The steel is high carbon and tunkson.The handle is just a peice of pine the shank is about 2" into the handle. Thanks for looking Vic.  |

| Re: A little more REACH!!! cool. I like the knife and the handle looks comfy. I love to see people's home crafted tools. It makes me want to go in the garage and make some of my own! mike
