Dad's New Sgians
As many of you may remember, my father is a rather accomplished wood worker. At times though, he even amazes me. I present for your review, the new sgian dubhs he has just finished....
Well done dad! These are stunning!

Very nice work indeed.

It is only one knife. The blade is indeed from Atlanta cutlery (one of their Damascus blades)
