Knife Handle Materials
Selecting the right handle material for your knife involves balancing aesthetics, functionality, and personal preferences. From the unique beauty of natural woods and burls to the durability of synthetics like Micarta and G10, each material has its charm and considerations. Keep in mind natural variability, care requirements, and costs when making your choice. Explore our full guide to discover the features, benefits, and care tips for a wide variety of handle materials, including premium options and bespoke configurations.
Knife Size Comparisons
Although I provide dimensions for each knife model that I make on the relevant pages, I believe that it would be helpful to be able to see all the blade blanks together for comparison purposes. Moreover, as I have a Ray Mears Woodlore knife - which is arguably the most well known Bushcraft type knife - as well as a cloned bare blade, I felt it would be very useful to use it for comparison purposes in terms of profile and size. Please note that there's no negativity intended towards the Woodlore knife blade blank; I simply wish to use it as a benchmark for illustrative purposes only.
