Mushroom Knife With Carved Handle And Recycled Blade

Do You like mushroom picking ? If so, I’m presenting cool, mushroom knife with boletus mushroom at the top which I’ve made for my son.

    Video from the making the knife

    Carved handle – from leftover of kitchen countertop

    First I’ve carved the handle from beech wood. This is a pretty dense wood which allows to make fancy shapes in it using only hands and chisel (You don’t need to work with mallet).

    Since it would be knife for my son, I’ve made a blade from thin, elastic not very sharp stainless steel. I’ve also made a curved shape of it.
    All of this because of safety (and such shape is also better in cutting mushrooms)

    Making the putty

    I’ve glued blade into the handle and cover the rest of the hole with the putty I’ve made from wood dust and wood glue

    The most satysfying part – staining

    The Result – Knife stylized to look like it’s made from an antler
