I just finished these up tonight. They're made from .061" AEB-L stainless steel and have a variety of Micarta handles installed. I just gotta finish up the sheaths for them and they're ready to go!
Thanks for looking!

Beautifu and very well done. I just started working with AEB-L and love the edge it takes and holds.

Thanks!
I've been working with AEB-L alot this year. It's a great, bargain priced stainless steel and heat treats and grinds well.
The thinner AEB-L is somewhat prone to warping (according to folks with more knowledge than me). But since I started grinding all of my AEB-L knives after heat treat, I haven't noticed any issues with warpage.
I'm looking to do a few more of these bird and trout knives with bone or stabilized wood handles.
