    Cutting Blanks

    Maybe so. I don't have the tools or skill to do that so I work with what I have. I'm a fan of technology though so I will trade a band saw for sweat equity for now.

    Getting serious in 2014.

    I made my first few knives late last year but I didn't have a lot of the proper techniques down so they came out less than stellar. I have decided to get serious about this and see where it takes me. One of my problems was trying to rush the steps(especially hand sanding) because I was so...

    One Special knife with Special Meaning

    Very awesome kid you have there. If he hasn't found it yet, you need to tell him to check out texasbowhunter.com. It is quite simply the best bowhunting forum on the planet. Very family friendly and open to anyone regardless of where they live.

    Cutting Blanks

    That's what I use as well. I have it zip tied to one of the vertical studs on my workbench. It works like a champ. I looked at other bandsaws but I just couldn't pass this one up. I saved money that I could spend elsewhere. I know a lot of people knock HF and all but using the 25% off code they...

    Best template material?

    They also make a good frame for a light box for taking pictures of your knives. That was what I used until I "upgraded" to a diaper box.

    Stonewashed finish

    Welcome to the forum. Most of the people that are doing stonewashing are first etching the knife by letting it set in ferric chloride then stonewashing it in a vibratory tumbler with ceramic media. I have no idea how you could spot fix that.

    Proposed Ivory Ban

    I agree with you there but I also wonder if the bill makes a distinction between mammoth tooth and ivory as the sites I have looked at that have them for sale have them split up.

    Another Game Dinner Knife

    Ok good to know. I wasn't questioning your judgment just wanted to know your thoughts about it. You obviously have it down pat! I think I will give it a go this weekend when I can do it outside.

    Another Game Dinner Knife

    Backtines, beautiful knife and thanks for those instructions. I have seen similar "recipes" but have been a little scared to try due to the possibility of creating dangerous fumes. This link from Duke Univ. makes it seem like there is a possibility of a violent release of chlorine gas if you mix...
