Knife Making - EDC WHARNCLIFFE w/ textured flats and BOG OAK handle

I believe it is a very underrated type of blade and when I first tried it, I was surprised how well it performs. Write in a comment what you'd like to see us making next! :)

What type of steel do you use?

First off, beautiful work! Love the blade shape. I am a newer subscriber. Couple questions:
1st, I would love to purchase a finished blank of this knife in 80crv2, if possible. I will be emailing your website today. Fingers crossed.
2nd, I see a lot of custom knives finished with the top rear of the handle scales cut diagonally down and I am confused by this (other than for aesthetically). Functionally, this is where the web of your thumb and index finger would lay when making hard push cuts. A big reason to keep handle material there for comfort, rather than removing it. Is there a method/reasoning that I am overlooking for this style?
Would love to see a Bowie style created.

[@BarbershopCustoms]

Thank you, we'll be waiting for your email then.
I believe you want your thumb rest further towards the tip when hard push cutting (as it gives you more leverage) and the scales couldn't possibly reach that far anyway. Of course, if someone likes to rest their thumb so close to the actual handle and wants an additional "meat" there, we can make a knife that way, after all it's custom work for a reason 😁
