    #7 done, finally!

    I got a little busy with some other stuff but finally got back to it the last couple of weeks, this is #7 done. I spent a lot more time sanding and finishing and took more care at the plunge line to try and define it. This is for my brother in law, he wanted a really fat handle so I used a large...

    Noob maker, lemme have it!

    Thank you, appreciate that! Just had a look at some of your work, love the frame locks. Really good looking folders.

    That’s a really good observation and I appreciate you sharing it. In Oklahoma (Kentucky too I’m sure) even a small edc knife ought to be a capable skinner. I don’t do a lot of hunting but have done a little and I think I agree with you on that spine shape. Full disclosure, I shaped it that way...

    Ha, thank you! To be faaiiiir I’m in between careers right now. Working on my real estate license, making knives and generally just screwing around. It’s not half bad! Point being I’ve got a little extra free time right now.

    I think you guys are all dead on with this. I can get focused on a thing almost to a fault but patience, end game, follow through have never been strong suits.

    Wow, thank you! Appreciate that. I will definitely spend some more time on the finish. I’m having so much fun with this that I think I’m rushing on to the next knife too quickly.

    Hello KnifeDogs. I just started up about a month and a half ago, managed these six so far with three more working. Pics are in order from first to most recent. I want to start focusing on cleaner plunge lines and finish on the blades. Ordered a satin finish wheel, hope that works out well. I’d...

    Hello from Oklahoma

    Hello all, my name is Otto and I just started making knives about a month and a half ago. I’ve wanted to get into this for a while and all it took was a national shutdown and crushing boredom to get me started!
