My first attempt "Scribing Knife #1" was not practical being only right-handed. Lee Valley's Striking Knife appeared like a good design http://www.leevalley.com/en/Wood/page.aspx?p=60044&cat=1,42936

| Size: |
8" overall, 3 1/4" blade
|
| Wood Species: |
Madagascar Rosewood
|
| Finish: |
DEFT Danish Oil "Clear Natural"
|
| Materials Source: |
Old Rockwell 6" jointer knife

The blade is made from an old 6" jointer knife. The handle was turned on the lathe and then two sides were flattened and hand sanded with 400 Grit paper. I am quite pleased with the feel of the grip, it just feels right! This knife can be used right-handed or left-handed...
