  • Snottygobble Petty

    Hi all,
    this is my latest piece, 12C27 Petty, I've been playing around with some different handle shapes for my kitchen knives and this is the most comfortable one I have come up with!

    Specs:
    O/A 238mm.
    Handle 105mm.
    Blade length 133mm.
    Blade width 30mm at the widest point.
    Blade thickness 2.5mm at the thickest point.
    Full flat grind with 800g hand satin finish.
    The handle is Snottygobble (Yeah I get a silly grin every time I say it too!) with pink G10 liners, Brass pins front and back, Copper pin in the center.

    This timber has some really nice chatoyancy in it that doesn't show up in photo's, you can see in one pic how the darker spots have almost disappeared. In the light, they vanish and some spots look almost clear with some really nice color changes!

            Lovely knife. Great scales!

            "Chatoyancy", my new favorite word.

              Thanks, [MENTION=6]Dutchy357[/MENTION]; yeah it gets frustrating trying to get good pics of timbers like this when all you want to do is show off the effect!
