Custom Knives

[cavemans workshop]

Hello all. I saw where webad2006 asked about me posting some knife pictures. I dont make any knives, but I do customize factory ones. I remove the original scales, and replace them with new ones, made of silver, Bronze, or copper. The pictures here are a knife with brass scales, and one with silver scales, and an inlay of copper, and one the other side of the knife, just the reverse, copper scale with silver scroll. This was my first attempt at any kind of inlay work.
I welcome any and all feed back. Thanks and God Bless
Mike

Mike,

Great looking knives, your style is very interesting. Was it easy to use those two materials together, for the inlays? and were they set/wedged into place, or soldered? Thanks for the post, keep up the good work!
