    I appreciate the compliment crashdive!
    Yes, the "kiwi" was intended as a carver/whittler, just plain old working knives.

    Here is one that I made a while back for the wife.
    It is displayed amongst her Native American pottery that she collects.
    The wood for the display stand is pine and was taken from a barn that was over 80 years old.

    The top one I've named "Dogbone". Handle made from dogwood, blade is from a sawzall blade.

    Second one I call the "kiwi". Handle made from red oak, brass pins, and the blade is also a sawzall blade.
    Thanks for looking!

    A patch knife and display stand that will be sent to a secret Santa recipient on a disc golf forum that I'm a long time member of.
    Thanks for looking!

    Thank you, and yes, red oak. I used a walnut stain, and after it dried, I rubbed it down with a mix of boiled linseed oil and turpentine. Took some of the stain off, but highlighted the grain pretty good.

    Messing around in the shop the other day and tried my hand at a miniature.
    The larger knife was quickly thrown together to test some new blade material my nephew bought me.

    Another "primitive" styled knife and display stand.

    I used a torch to slightly burn the end of the handle, but the pics don't show it well...
