Man that’s a bummer. Broke ribs suck! Broke two of mine a few years ago, I know how ya feel. Take it easy, and I pray you won’t have to cough for a month!

Lol, yeah! My foot safety is….questionable. I do hate getting metal shavings through the holes in the top though.

Been monkeying around with this Bowie for about the last three weeks. Got the guard shaped and textured (silicon bronze) and a handle fit and rough shaped from a 45 year old piece of Heath burl. Gonna try to make the pommel and takedown nut tomorrow, then it’s just finishing. I finished the...

When I had chickens the hawks and owls would take a few every year. Once they get wise to them, they did a pretty good job of hiding when one would fly over. It was funny to watch because they would often see one before I did. When the chickens would randomly scatter and hide, you always knew a...

Is that G-Carta? Nice work!

Hi there, and no that’s not too young!

I dunno, I just make scribe lines down the edge to mark center and then just grind to them.

More addictive than crack, it is. Probably more expensive too, lol

Thank you for the kind words. And yeah, I got an early start, lol.

Hi, welcome to the forums!

Not from the shop today, but I came across this knife today and thought I would share it. This is the earliest knife I have that I made. It got lost and rusty, but still kinda looks like a knife. It’s forged out of an old file, and the handle is ebony, with brass pins. My “forge” at the time was...

Hi! Is this the same Jim Hrisoulas that had a book called “Master Bladesmith”?

Very nice!

Definitely unique! Both look really good

Finished this takedown hunter today. W2, with hamon. My picture doesn’t show that at all. Starry Night G-Carta, with a bronze takedown nut recessed into the butt. Guard is Nordic gold.

I watched that a couple days ago. Very interesting.

Here is an example of it being used. I have to do some drilling and machining to this stag crown, and to hold it all straight and vertical and everything I mixed up a big wad of this stuff and mashed it into a snus can. Now I can take it out and put it back into this mold as often as I need and...

Howdy!

Looks nice. I would have kept the handle straight. Nice work though
