very nice folder Keith. I am just now starting on my first folder, a slip joint. Nothing fancy just learning how to crawl. I hope mine look as good as yours. Again very nice work. Robert

I appreciate the feedback and thanks for the advise Max.I'll give it a shot on the next one.

thanks Ausbrooks the knife is about an 1 1/4" wide so i was using a 10" grinding wheel which is what i thought was enough to make the grind. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, Robert

must be the web site both pics look that way

repost sorry about the pic it looks a bit pixelated so here is a better pic of the knife.

Here is a skinner I made for a friend of mine to give to his brother for his birthday. The knife is made from D2 steel (my favorite) and its heat and cryo treated to 60 rc. The blade is 4" and the OAL is 8 7/8". The handle is stabilized mesquite burl. The blade is almost full hollow ground which...

Thanks alot guys it means alot coming from some experienced knifemakers.

Here are a couple of pics of the fileworked tang. Thanks, Robert

Thanks Randy and to answer your question the handle material is called Banksia Pod which is native to Australia.

Just a few pics of some knives that I made during the holidays. I actually made one that was given at a skeet shoot a few months back and got requests to make the same knife for Christmas gifts. Anyway thanks for looking and God bless. Robert Cabrera Cabrera Custom Knives

Fixing to take the plunge and try my hand at working with damascus. My next knife will be the same style as this one with a few changes. I hope it comes out good. Will post pics as I go along. Robert

Thanks for the compliments guys. I am fixing to start a new one using Damascus. It will be my first time working with it so it could turn out to be a very expensive learning experience.

Just finished a knife that will be auctioned off with proceeds going towards a pediatric ward at a local hospital at an event called the BRUSH COUNTRY BASH. Had a hard time letting it go but it's for a good cause.

Me too been trying to quit but it gets hard at times plus it calms me down when I work on knives and keeps me from getting ahead of myself which tends to happen from time to time.

Was asked to make a knife for a friend of mine to give to his father in law. Didn't come out quite like I had pictured but still is a good looking knife I think. Let me know what you guys think. I know I placed my logo too far back on the blade but thats because i left a bit of a long curve on...

I would have to agree with Rudy. It's not worth your safety to glue it back with any kind of epoxy. Epoxy will come loose when heated up so I really wouldn't put to much faith in it when it comes to that and I'm pretty sure most others will too.

Just about any particulate filter respitator will do. Don't get me wrong and buy the cheap masks but the respirators. You should be able to find them at any hardware or home improvement store. You can also look online. Grizzly.com sells pretty good ones but they may cost a bit more but well...

Thanks Keith. I am currently working on a similar knife to donate to an auction that will benefit a childrens ward at a local hospital. What I have in my head is a knife similar to the one pictured above with damascus bolsters front and back and mammoth tooth scales. The sheath I haven't decided...

Thanks Max. I appreciate that.
