3 “English” Style Trade Knives

LRB said:

Should be good working knives, but if PC is ever a concern, English blades were pretty thin and not scandi ground. On average scalper sizes, 1/16" to 3/32" thick with a distal taper. Not a major problem but scandi grinds do cause some amount of drag in cutting material thicker than the grind angle including meat. Your pins are nicely done.

Finished up three knives this evening. Now to get some sheaths made. 1095 carbon steel blades, two with walnut scales and one with what I believe is oak (middle). I made them full tang as opposed to the more PC half tang. Epoxy and three peened steel pins hold the scales in place.

Nicely done. Be curious to see your sheaths when completed.
