Chicago bound EDC

[Lagrange]

I want to appologize for inapropriately using my knife making logo in my signature line. I didnt read the rules thoroughly. It was my mistake.

I would like to re-post showing you a knife I built recently.
I am open to critique.....

Pretty nice looking knife. I like the handle and brass work. Looks like it would be a very comfortable holding blade. The tooling on the sheath is cool too.

Nice looking Knife . Can you tell us more about it ? Steel used? wood?

Is this knife going to be carried in Chicago?

Does it comply with Chicago's knife ordinance?

Approx. 7" long 5/32" S35 VN stainless...brass bolsters, pins, and lanyard tube. Crotch cut walnut scales.

Thanks for asking.

The new owner and his wife bought some property here in my area (near Howe, IN.) They are in the process of renovating the house and will be moving when it is completed. He said he wanted the knife for carrying when he moves here.
I have no idea about the knife ordinances in Chicago.

Good question though.

Beautiful work!

That's a beautiful knife. I hope the owner is as happy with it as I would be.

Hmm, my post seems not to have gone through, I am sure I posted in this thread..

Excellent work! I love the walnut. Between that beautiful handle and the ridiculously detailed sheathe, that's an A++ right there.

You probably did.
Unfortunatly I made the mistake of using my buisness/hobby name in my signature, so they took the post down and sent me a warning not to use it unless I was paying for the priveledge. That is why I posted an appology at the beginning of this post.

Thanks for the kind words!

Ah I guess I didn't reread the post, I just read responses and saw the pictures, so i assumed it was the same post.

That knife is drop dead gorgeous. Very nicely done. I'm a big fan of S35VN, and the scales and sheath really look great.

I'm glad you like it.
I like working with S35VN, it can be difficult to grind, but it doesnt have the tendancy to warp if you grind it thin like some of the other stainless materials I have worked with. CPM 154 is my all time favorite.

Thanks for the kind words.
