Hello all, it has been a while since I last posted but I have been keeping busy. Here is a little project I have been working on for the past couple of weeks as time permits between commissioned orders, but it's kind of funky so I thought I would share. This little skinner started off its life...

I have three pieces left from a recent sale and wanted to offer them for sale here. First "I'll Take It" gets it. These knives have all the same specs aside from the damascus version which is only different on the steel type. Specs: Blade: 4 1/2 inches Spine Thickness: 3/16 Handle Length: 4...

Thanks everyone! This one was a blast and a challenge, I am definitely looking forward to the next one.

Well in my hard to prove sanity, with one week until my biggest show of the year I decided to try and make my first folding knife. Despite some minor frustrations, I have to say it was the most rewarding and exciting project I have worked on in years. This one was heavily inspired by Serge...

This is an interesting topic and I was surprised to read about people's experiences with deposits. I believe if you are doing it full time as your only source of income a deposit is a must for custom work. I was burned once on a commission and once is enough. For custom orders I require a 50%...

Thanks guys! :)

I made this one to be the center piece in an upcoming show, it's a 2,000 layer modified multi bar jelly roll with a high carbon core. The steels used in the forging of this knife were 1084/1095/W2/ 15n20 it was a blast to put together and so I decided to send it off to Caleb Royer to have it...

Thank you for all of the kind compliments everyone. :)

So I haven't completely fallen off the face of the earth, I haven't had much time to do things online in quite a while other than the odd Facebook update. One of the main reasons for this has been my family has been reduced to one car temporarily and doing all of the driving has deeply cut into...

Thank you everyone for your patience I just finished the knife not to long ago and sent it off to Scott Roush to photograph and he did a great job. Let me know what you all think. I ended up trying a smaller fold formed copper inlay than I normally use and liked the more subtle touch it added to...

So this past week has been very frustrating and full of set backs. I have been working with W2 recently and this week I lost five blades to the quench which hasn't happened to me in years. :( One of the blades was a large harpoon point bowie, so I got back on the horse and made another one in...

Hello all, it has been a while since I have posted anything getting married can make one busy But I have been developing a new production line I wanted to show and get opinions on. I will be posting all of the new knives and versions on this thread so as to not inundate you guys with pictures...

Thanks for the comments guys! :)

This is one I recently finished that has a ton of character. This knife was hand forged from 1084 and clay quenched to achieve a hamon. Specs: Steel: 1084 hand forged Blade: 7 1/2 inches long Width: 1 3/4 inches Overall Length: 13 inches long Thickness at ricasso: 1/4 inch Handle: 5 3/4...

Here is a new one I just finished up today, this one was a fun build that everything just went well on. I actually forged this blade at Dave Dellagardelle's shop last weekend and he was kind enough to give me the piece of wood that became the handle. He had gotten it from Andy Davis who told me...

As sad as I am to see it go, the camp chopper is now available for sale. Since I have my wedding in less then a month hopefully this knife will sell quickly This blade was had forged with a center core of 700 layer pattern weld of 1084/1095/15n20, the two outer cores are 15n20 and W2. The...

Thanks Justin!

Thanks! :) I lucked out on lighting at the end of the day and was able to snap some good photos showcasing the new camp chopper.

Thanks for the comments guys. :) Okay so today was about finishing the handle and making the sheath. I ended up adding a pin (not recommended to ever do at this stage, but if you are careful you can do it.) and I finalized the finish on the handle. First the sheath: I decided I would do...
