Re: the pickers home brew

Very nice work. :hbg:

I've missed this thread somehow (big site).

Question - what have you found to be the most comfortable handle shape?

Thanks again for the wonderful pictures.

Re: the pickers home brew

I find the basic handle shape to be the most comfortable by juts a bit as long as it has some height to it I find I don't have trouble with any of them.

Just finished this up decided to try brass rivets which work quite well. Handle is toxic green g10 with 1095 carbon spring steel at the business end ^_*

Nice work, are you also active over at 'blade forums'? the materials are reminiscent of knife scales
