Here's another fine example of the many different styles of handle that are being made for our Julius Pettersson Knife Blade. Woodlore customer Nick Simmons created a more ornate handle than is often seen, using filework techniques to great decorative effect:

Hi there, Just finished this knife for my good friend Eddie's 40th birthday. Thought you might like to see it!

Loved working on it.
