Itto Ryu Olivewood Handle Project

I decided to try my hand at making custom handles for two Itto-Ryu knives I bought. They totally deserve better handles ;-).

This video is Part 1 of 2, which shows the finished handle on the 210 Gyuto. Part 2 will follow once I finish the second handle and install it on the 175 Nakiri. I have new found respect for handle makers, that's for darn sure!

Also, my apologies to Carter. My comment at the end was in no way meant as a back handed compliment. It just came out of my mouth that way :-).

Those new handles really make the knives look so much more handsome. Nice work!
