I agree with you that most of these sorts of knives have handles that are either straight or going in a downward direction. This particular angle works well with certain woodcarving applications. But the next knife in the series will have a different handle angle. That's part of the fun of making your own tools.

A lot of machetes I've seen made are curved the other way, is there a specific reason you did it this way? or did you just make it the way you liked?<br /><br />Don't think I'm criticizing, it looks nice, and I would love to have a blade like that with me as I ventured into the woods. Just curious as to the blade shape. <br /><br />stephen.Oldanvilyoungsmithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10271646963583817674noreply@blogger.com
