Beauty is in the eye of the beholder and any knife is worth selling. The price however is determined by the quality. The only tip I can give you is to look at as many knife pics as you can. If you find a design that is pleasing to your eye try and figure out what it is you like. There's very...

Thanks for the explanation on the handle slabs. I actually thought it was moulded like that. It's just a pity it's not as durable as it is good looking. The more I look at those sheaths the more I like them. Your leather work is the best I've seen in years.

Can't say it's my cup of tea but these look FANTASTIC ! The sheaths too. Would you mind telling us exactly how you made those handle scales?

Lazy craze :)

I wanted to say "WOW" but since everyone else already did I will just sit here and drool all over the keyboard. That is a magnificent piece of work.

Looks like a great grinder. You won't mind me stealing an idea or two ? ;)

LOL, you should see it now! These pics were taken a couple of months ago after a quick revamp and spring cleaning. I'm really working my butt off to keep up with customer demands and the SA Guild show is in little more than 2 months so there's no time for cleaning. The blue machine is an Adcock...

Sweet looking piece. Does the blade lock in the closed position? I know the most factory made straight razors keeps the blade inside by friction fit. The Ti liners makes it kinda difficult.

I guess ""Tapeworm tango" won't do it. ;) Looks great btw.

These are kinda self explanatory. My shop is housed in a double garage with a total floor space of 50 square meters.

A timeless time piece. I will sell my soul for one of those. But then I want the tobacco pipe too..........

Just finished building this little monster. Not 6 x 610cm or 6 x 610inches but 6mm x 610mm! The machine is based on a design for a 50mm x 2000mm beltgrinder by Gawie Herbst only much smaller. I actually wanted to make an exact scale model of the larger version but that would mean that I would...

Welcome. I really like your style.

Shocking!! Pardon the pun. That is some darn lucky electrician. I wish I could pay for more stuff with knives. Life will be so much more enjoyable. Great work! I just love that sheath.

Thanks for the warm welcome and kind words guys. Pieter, all my knives that ended up having scrimmed handles was done by Sharon Burger. I'm far too clumsy to atempt such intricate work. Wish I had more time to spend here to catch up on everything being said and done.

Just stopped by to introduce myself. My name is Andries Olivier and I live in Lydenburg, South Africa. I'm a maker of knives in all sizes, swords, axes, tobacco pipes and tinkerer in general. I stumbled upon this site while looking for knife parts and thanks to a little help from Tracy I'm able...
