My Custom Folding Utility Knife

[mirock]

Hello guys!

Here is my custom folding utility knife based on Stanley exchangeable blades.

The handle is made of padauk, sucupira and tauari. The box is made of iroko wood.

Aluminum blade-holder made by myself with help of woodworking tools.

Some Festool tools also were used in the process. Ts-55 (in the table) and C 12 screwdriver

Here is the video of the process on my youtube channel.

Wow, beautiful.  I just started working with Padauk recently as well.  It has such a rich color.

Really rich color. So bright and saturated that arms are redish some time after work. I think padauk's sawdust could be used for color pigment.
