    I don't see one that I don't like and several I love. I place the micartas up there at the top. for me anyway.
     
  11. thank you, the handles with the angled spacers seem to be a big hit with everyone. half of tge requests i get now are for ones with that design.
     
  12. thank you! cant tell you how much that means to me!
     
  13. haha, i sent some of these handles to the youtube channel "burrfection" and that was his favorite as well. im collaborating with a knife maker right now. making a few k-tip gyutos with my handles on them. two of them will have clones of the micarta handle. one with brass spacers, one with copper.
    thank you for the kind words! i will have a "professional craftsman" page on here soon

    bated breath!!
     
  15. Are these significantly more difficult to make?
     
  16. no, not too much more difficult. they did present a couple new challenges but i got the kinks out pretty quickly
     
  17. 225mm gyuto by Rosecity knife works glued up with the old ass handle i made for my uncles friend.

  18. As a customer I can wholeheartedly recommend. I've ordered the "forest" handles and the pictures don't do these handles justice. Also it was a pleasure dealing with you. Hopefully I can do business with you again soon.
     
  19. hey man!!!! didn't know you were on here! the photos may not do it justice but your photography skills are way better than mine!

    This one was a personal build, interesting geometry inspired by a trangular handle one of my chefs knives had at work. Ebony, mammoth molar and agetized dinosaur bone. hope you guys enjoy!
