I haven't yet , but I might consider making some to sell some time , I recently picked up a 1x42 belt sander/grinder so it cuts a lot of time off shaping the scales. when it was a all hand operation it was very time consuming.

Nice work. I have the same two knives, top with walnut and bottom with maple that looks almost exactly like yours. We use them as kitchen knives. The Russell Green River blades make great kitchen knives for a very modest cost. They take an edge easily and hold it well. yes they do , that is what these will be , my Wife requested the hunter and my youngest the boning knife that hunter has geometry that you just keep realizing is good enough at most everything very much a multi purpose utilitarian knife. Russel has been making the blanks for a very long time and people knew how and what they were cutting back when it was designed. the hunter was my belt knife when I was cooking in a few different church kitchens , nothing was a ton of slicing but lots of small kitchen tasks prepping and serving meals for about 15 people.
