Gallery of Stefan's knife handles

Hi everyone,

just wanted to start this thread as a place to collect a few pictures of knives that have my handles on them. If you have a knife picture (or the handle only and you want to show it), please feel free to post it here. I also hope that Dave will occasionally add a few, since he puts most of them on peoples' knives for me. I am also in the process of reorganizing my website, and if anybody posts pictures here, I may want to copy them for my website gallery; if that is not o.k., for you, please let me know.

Thanks,

Stefan

 

Here are a few of mine.

 

The most resently installed Stefan handle....

Hello Kitty

 

Really?

 

This one will haunt me... Meant more as a funny variation, I never expected to see it on a Shigefusa gyuto... But I have seen worse combinations

Haha that will never get old.

 

It gets better in fact.

 

Now don't be a jealous beaver Greg!

The hello-shiggy handle is probably the most awesome handle I have seen in a while.

 

Nice Taylor, did you install those yourself?

 

Sometimes I look at a knife and try to picture what the owner would be like.
This is how I visualize the hello kitty knife owner. Cute but tough.

 

Hey Dave, yes I did. I know it has been a while, but your advice was very helpful in the process.

 

I don't recall giving you any advice but I'm glad that it helped. The handles look great and the installation just as good.

 

Mark, if the target audience of the Hello Kitty handle looks like this, I will make more and insist on personal pick-up

Taylor, nice work. I hadn't seen that Forgie before, looks great. I think I have one of those, too, somewhere... Will probably follow your example with refreshing it if I ever find the time...

Shigefusa nakiri with (something different from Stefan) a modified D-Shaped handle....

 

Here's a really nice higher end handle from Stefan...

 

That is fantastic, I do like that angled nip onthe butt, some knives it really works for. This is a goodun'

 

Just finished up on this one. It's the first Stefan handle installed in the new shop.

 

Gorgeous work Stefan!! Truly!
