    Well, don't feel bad y'all, I called them handles as well, till started hanging out with these artists.....Just didn't know any better.....LOL.

    Have been making basic DIY knives for a lot or reasons, with a lot of materials, including files, saw, lawn mowerblades, even steel strapping, and sharpened hack saw blades with friction tape handle (not fancy enough to be called a scale) for a lot of years.......But these guys are GOOD!

    Nice job, like like them all and the handles too.....LOL.
