After two weeks of applying multiple layers of Birchwood/Casey's Tru-Oil daily I have finally boxed and wrapped up the Christmas gift knives I made for my daughter's.
There are indeed a number of minor flaws on both handles that I will address going forward on future knife builds but I am overall happy with the end results.
I didn't designate either knife outright, I will let them choose between themselves who gets the Red package and who gets the Green one.
