And after a day or two of being handled. Sent from my XT1565 using Tapatalk

Stainless steel liners, mammoth tooth scales, mokume bolsters, Damascus steel blade and spacer, g10 liner. This took a long time but I'm happy with the outcome. Paleo bond is your friend when working mammoth tooth, so is the video from Turnage. The client was over the top happy with the...

Thanks, that's what I needed to know. Sent from my XT1565 using Tapatalk

So heat treat has been done, temper is finished. Now what? I assume I finish my bevels. But do I need to remove all the scale from heat treat? Or can I just hang it as is in my acid? Also, 20 minutes? This is a piece of Damascus I got from USAknifemaker if that makes a difference. Sent...

I sent the mammoth tooth back. Today in the mail I got my Turnage DVD on how to work with fossils and ivory. If you want to learn something for 35 bucks, buy this DVD. It really shows some great tips on how they suggest you process the materials. I feel much better about my future...

O1 tool steel, patriot kirinite. Sweet pivot from USAknifemaker. Someone ordered this to give as a Christmas gift. Sent from my XT1565 using Tapatalk

I'm using the mammoth tooth for a knife that someone will never carry around. They wanted a show piece to just look at. I planned on using paleo bond on it, then I'll eopoxy the scales to a liner material I have for this specific knife. Sent from my XT1565 using Tapatalk

Just to compare. From Turnage. These were 50 bucks, Texas Knifemakers scales were 75. Sent from my XT1565 using Tapatalk

And after a Google of cryoaculate, I can't find it or anything close sounding to that substance. Sent from my XT1565 using Tapatalk

Oowuld you return these scales or use them? I ordered other sets of scales from Turnage and they were perfect, even, and book matched. Just Greta all the way around. These came from Texas Knifemakers, "sorry big dog..." and the thickness is no where near being even from end to end when...

I think it looks pretty good! No one would know its your first knife if you didn't tell them. Sent from my XT1565 using Tapatalk

Thanks! I'll weld a ring gear to it next time. Ha! Sent from my XT1565 using Tapatalk

Thanks Shaun. I dig it. I still have a ton of steel left so I'll probably make a few more, but leave off the teeth. Sent from my XT1565 using Tapatalk

I made this from an old circular saw mill blade. I left the teeth on just because they looked cool, to me they do anyways. It chops and is shave sharp. Brown and green paper micarta scales. Sent from my XT1080 using Tapatalk

Annnnnd, this is now on hold. I got three orders this week for friction folders. Time to make the doughnuts. Sent from my XT1080 using Tapatalk
