      So, what alloy of steel did you use; what abrasive in your sandpaper; which composite or wood materials. What heat treatment, quench, and temper schedules. You could have done so much better with this video.

    This is what I was looking for! I have a diving knife whose plastic handle has disintegrated. Nothing fancy, but a shame to throw it away, but no special tools. This has inspired me to repurpose it. I have a chunk of rosewood that has been in the shed for a couple of years. Don't worry, it won't be going in the sea again... 😁

    Love the blade length from handle to tip great shape only thing I would change is towards tip on back of knife I would put or make a hump so when skining with blade edge facing up the hump will slightly push tip or point away from meat and not stick into meat so easy old butchers knives if you look were like this or slightly curved

    It's not the price of the tool, it's the skill of the artist. Lovely work. What are the materials used in the three thin layers you stacked and glued with epoxy between the guard (back quillon) and the wooden handle? What are their purpose? My guess is they are leather, brass, and steel and they are just decorative? Is the guard made of brass?
