A Cleaver

Here's a cleaver I made recently.  It has cocobolo wood handles.  It's made from 440-C stainless steel.  I made an extra big handle on it so it's easy to keep a grip on.  The pins are 3/32 nickel silver. 

I got the blade, wood, and pin stock from Jantz knife maker's supply.  This is the only cleaver I've ever made.  I'm planning on making some more soon, though.

I'll post more pictures soon.  Check back often, or better yet, become a follower and you'll receive the entries right to your email!
