Help
I have just finished them, so I haven't honed them up yet and I'm so looking forward to finding out how they are going to go. 
I have to thank Clive Hallum for his excellent Tutorial on making these!

My attempt to make some Japanese styled Ivory carving knives. I have just finished them, so I haven't honed them up yet and I'm so looking forward to finding out how they are going to go.

Hi Ron
As a tool maker (for own use only) I congratulate you on what looks like a very nice set of tools.
Just one question - can you give a few details regarding the handles (shape, wood, size etc). I am happy regarding the blades having made many myself.
Well done and enjoy using them

Thanks Ron for sharing your blades with us. The clarity of the photos is amazing, especially the closeups. I am going to track down that tutorial you mentioned, right this second. putting the blades on gumleaves is great too.
Take care Ron.
