Last year I made knives for my family members for Christmas and had intended to keep on doing so. However, at the beginning of the year my third kid was born (a little early) and the house hasn't really been the same since.
I've been meaning to make a backup knife to mount behind my magazine pouches on my work belt to replace the kabar LDK, which is way too small to grab under stress. This is also one of the main reasons I started dabbling in knife making to begin with.
I drew this up about a year ago and had it laid out on some 1084 already, but for some reason it just didn't seem right.
I had the idea the other day (at a magical moment where I could get into the garage) to try them out of solid G-10. As it so happens, I didn't like this gray/tan color for scales. I made these out of it...
