a few of the ladies in my family are getting new parring knives this year

green river blanks , cherry from a tree I cut a few years ago , a palm swell design with the scales hoping it feels good in the older arthritic hand

the finish is a stain to redden up the cherry a bit then oil

this is the first one done

Pete -

Love the craftsmanship, especially the palm swell. Looks to be very ergonomic. Sweet!

my son has been helping with these also so it is good experience for him as well.

I am thinking I will probably make up some Kydex travel covers for them also I am going to have to ship some.

it is really nice to have a good way to transport a sharp knife ,it may be a while before any are in the church kitchen again but it seems one thing churches have in common is dull knives in the kitchen.

one of my pet peeves is a dull knife , I am no snob but carbon steel and sharp are my preference. I often wore my belt knife to church if I was going to be in the kitchen so that I would have a good knife to work with.

Excellent looking scales. I'm not arthritic, but I very much appreciate a handle large enough to hold on to. I always wondered who ever decided small knives should have small handles.

Most box store kitchen knives are complete overpriced trash. The Russell GR blades are probably the best way to get a good kitchen knife that will take a shaving sharp edge and keep it for a reasonable time. I have done several and we use them all the time.

I brought a bunch of dull knives home from our seniors group kitchen. Spent most of an afternoon, getting them back in shape.. Good way to spend an afternoon. If you guys are looking for a project, do the same. The ladies will think you are great. Might score a second piece of pie , at the next church supper.. old243
