Big thanks to @36fatfriends for teaching/coaching me through it! I started this over a year ago at his old place, then we moved to South Africa. He shipped the blade to me after heat treat, it took 3 months to get here. Then, after about 3 more months, I finally put a handle on it.
I even made the micarta as well! Used several camo cotton bandanas and fiberglass resin... It turned out alright. I think I may put a light coat of resin on the outside too to add a protective layer to it.
This is a copy of the Bayley S4 knife (aka the original Bear Grylls knife)
