Making the Polar Whittler knife making kit with Silver Birch handle
Link to youtube slideshow with images from putting together the Polar Whittle knife making kit.
I did three of these for the Sydney Knife Show to show the process.
One will be left in pieces ready to be glued up, one glued and only rough shaped, and one will be completed.
Here is the link to the youtube slideshow: https://youtu.be/DG-ghlZu7tw
