    Serpentine Dagger

    Hi Folks, I've always been fascinated by serpentine daggers, and I've wanted to try grinding one for years. Finally got a chance! It wasn't easy . . . . CPM154, hollow ground on a 3" wheel. Polished to 2000 grit, then further polished with crocus cloth. Nickel silver fittings, fluted...

    TW90 vertacal/horizontal grinder

    I also bought it mainly for the surface grinding attachment, but it's a great general purpose grinder as well. About as smooth as my Hardcore with an 8" wheel.

    Anyone using a TW-90 surface grinder?

    Well, the magnetic chuck is 9 1/2" long, and you get full travel over the chuck - so I'd say 9 1/2", though I think you could probably overhang a little on each end.

    Love the pattern in the Damascus. The knives look like they just beg to be used.

    Another Folder making question?

    That's how I've always done it. Works great. Pick a color your wife doesn't like though, or the bottle will never be where you left it when you look for it.

    Having made a few throwers myself, those look to me as though they will throw quite nicely. And they'll look great sticking in the target!

    Neck knife with orange G-10

    Ground from 1/8" stock, 5 1/2" overall with a 2 1/2" blade. This is a variation on my Goblin model. The three-finger grip handle is orange G-10. This particular knife has a tapered tang, which will not be a standard feature on this model (though I can taper the tang on any one of my fixed...

    Neck knife with orange G-10

    I don't know whether to call this a new model, or just a variation on my Goblin model. It will definitely be part of my standard catalog either way. The handle is just like the Goblin, but the blade is a drop point. The spine is beveled on both sides near the point, and there are no thumb...
