I don't think I have ever done a project and went straight though, without making future jigs , rewiring a outlet closer to project, sharpening all my drills instead of one, installing a new light to see better , putting a new cord on the drill, Been building the same Barstool for 35 years and...

Was using my old Smith and Wesson folding pocket knife when I noticed how beat-up the plastic handles were. Perfect new project! So I searched through my scrap wood for something thin enough yet still large enough to make both sides :) I found a large enough scrap of Circassian (sp?) walnut...

This is the story of the pair of knives I made to send to MaFe, with the plan that he would pick one of the knives for himself, and then send me a sheath for the other knife in return. As I wasn't sure of the size of his hands, I made the knives similar in size, sized more for my large hands...

This time I made a knife handle for a knife I had started long time ago of an old file, the knife hasnt much to it, it has just grinding and reshaping the file. The handle is made of two diferent pieces of wood, mahogany and pine wich gives it a nice contrast. The pieces were glued together...

This is a knife handle I made for my friends father, I made one for him before on another old knife he had where the old handle wasn't useable anymore. I made the other one out of padauk and just put a simple round over on it, I decided to try moulding this one to your hand more. I made it out...

I made a Kershaw style handle for my Cold Steel machete. BLO finish. Bronze bushings and loctite epoxy from box store. Sharpened on a wicked edge system… actually too sharp but it sure is FUN with the little stuff. Cuts like a light sabre :) I basicly was just after a good reprofiling. Just...

This is my first attempt at a knife handle. Not perfect but I am pretty happy with it. I used an extra strip from my first cutting board (maple & walnut). It was a bread-cutting board for a gift, so I thought a matching bread knife would go well with it. I have a bit to learn with setting...

Knife block as a wedding present for my nephew. I copied an existing block that I have as a design. Walnut with bloodwood accents. Finished with 4 coats of 100% tung oil. The knife handles are stabilized York gum burl (from spa city woodworks). I applied them onto Zhen damascus blades from...

I made new knife handle for my father in law. It's made of walnut, cut on bandsaw, groove for blade on tablesaw and small part with handsaw. Sanded on disc sander and oscillating spindle sander. Rounded on router table. Finish wood oil. Father in law will make holes and fix blade.

Here's some before and after pictures of some sandwich knives used at our deli. As you can see in the second picture, the handles where sort of nasty looking. I did a quick job of replacing the handles. Only three of the four made it into the "after" picture because one was back in service...

My favorite Chef's knife was ready for retirement…..the handle was disintegrating. I nursed it along for a while, and then decided to try to rehabilitate it. I had a piece of African teak...supposed to be water resistant….and a little time. The original handle was held in place by brass rivets...

Hello folks, I made this knife using traditional metalworking but what I mostly wanted to show here are the two novel techniques I came up with while making the knife's birch bark handle. Here is an instructional video (7 min):

Well, here is the first knife handle I've ever made. My nephew asked me to make him a handle for his knife & this is what I came up with. This is just a cheap knife but he wanted something made from me. I inlaid some turquoise in the front & the other end is painted white in the groove with...

Here's fun little project for a Saturday. The Case folding knife is one I've had. It's marked a lot of calves and cut a lot of hay twine. One of the scales broke and the other cracked. I tossed it on my bench next to the stamp block and kept thinking about it. The other day I got caught up and...

This was a fun project that I did for a gift. I bought the blade from an online supplier and fit the handles to it with epoxy and brass rod. The biggest challenge was getting the holes drilled precisely through the handles. Everything else was done with hand files, which took some time but...

I found an old Butcher knife and decided to change the handle with some wenge I had laying around. I was just playing around with regrinding the blade. I didn't have any power tools I cut it with a handsaw and sanded the crap out of it. I think is turned out ok for just whittling.

This oak chest will be a wedding present for a good friend. Ideally, with help from the other guys in the wedding, this thing will be filled with booze and tobacco products, or some other kind of loot before it is presented to the bride and groom.

Father-in-law cut down a large burl and gave me the wood. As a little x-mass present, he received a new buck skinner with some burl he collected from his backyard. A big thank you to Walter Sorrells, he has some amazing tutorials on youtube that covered all the steps in helping this little...
