Handmade knife from John

On Sunday, John gave me a knife he'd made for me overnight. My first knife, so this is pretty special. It has a 2.5" blade, a handstitced moulded leather sheath with drainage hole at the bottom and holly handle. It's not stainless steel so I've got to look after it he said. Thankyou John. In return I'm designing his leatherwork and metal stamps including an ash leaf and J, so watch this space.

The Fisheye Bench...seat in progress

Finishing the oak seat for the Fisheye bench (Fisheye design company I do a lot of work with badly need a bench to sit on)...maybe this summer they'll finally get one.
