Tea & Pickles ? Thought that was at your place..... AHDC supported ;)

Richards & Cohea ...wow ! There is a combination that would be the staple in my collection. Two craftsman that can create work that compliments each other , nice work guys.

Awesome work. I love your rendition of the Loveless hunter , definitely my fav of the Loveless style.

I have that one and " How to make folding knives " by Lake , Centofante and Clay.... great resources to have ! 2thumbs

Yeah , I gonna finish some more eventually. Right now I am in the midst of redoing drywall in the shop , its slowly becoming functional again , and it will be nice to have 1200 sq ft of usable space finally ! :)

Very nicely done ! I started carrying one of the fixed blades I make daily about a year ago , I use it every chance I get. Great work !

That is a sure turn off for me , as soon as a maker starts claiming how superior their work is to maker XYZ , I walk away. There aren't many that do it , but they are out there. If a maker is talking about his work , I will listen to everything he has to say. Another thing I have seen a maker...

This is about it for today , will do final cleanup , logo and sharpen after I make the leather sheath: Now to find all my leather working tools....and a clean spot on the bench to work the leather. :eek:

With the epoxy cured , it was time to trim of the excess bolts on the band saw and get to profiling. Sanded outside shaped and broke the corners with a 60 grit. Then 80 grit to rough in the contour : From here on out , all handle work is done in the knifemaker vise using 1" shop rolls...

Very clean work , great stitching , awesome inlay , certainly one to be darn proud of.
