Here is a piece I just finished up for a couple... pretty nice wedding gift for the husband from a generous wife. This is one of my "Fat" Bowies, a short wide blade of 400+ layer "raindrop" damascus with a double guard and threaded pommel from the same billet. The handle is a nice piece...

Hey all, Hope you are all well and the summer heat wasn't too much. Here’s a bowie I’ve recently finished with a new pattern and a new handle material. I hope you like her. J. This Bowie is a pretty recognizable style for me but, with a few new twists. The blade is done in my "Rain &...

Hello All, It’s been a very busy summer and it’s been tough to produce any “stock” pieces on top of all the other orders but, I’m sort of catching up so here’s one I’m finally putting up. This is a variation of my (newly popular) Baby Bowie with a touch from an artist that is new to me but, I...

As many of you know, I've been doing my BUK (Basic Utility Knife) for quite a number of years now and on occasion someone would request a finish other than the standard "satin" belt finish. Well, now I'm offering the BUK in a hand-rubbed and "antiqued" finish for those who get annoyed with...

Here is a piece i just finished up for a fellow, it's a small fixed-blade I call a "pocket knife" because it's small enough for there or your belt. This hidden-tang blade is just over 3 1/2" and forged from 1095 & 15N20 done in a "W" pattern. The hardware is silica bronze (with a fullered...

This piece is going to take a tour in beautiful South America..... can't wait for pix. A good gent asked me to make a variation of a "Bagwell-style" Bowie to take on a (business... LOL) trip. The blade is 10" of Gas-rig Cable Damascus (a lot of that going on in PA now). The S-guard with...

Thanks guys, it's much appreciated. J.

Hey Brad, I don't use pins on my knives (I just don't trust them to secure scales over time, I think epoxy should only seal a knife, not hold it together), I prefer to use handle bolts. When I'm doing an etched blade I make a set of "dummy bolts", then I grind the entire piece, remove the scales...

I've done a heck of a lot of damascus but, hadn't done a "feather" pattern yet. Well, now I have..... might have to try some more of this one. Here's my first shot at "feather" on one of my "Cross-over" knives. Hope you like it. J. This Drop-point knife is a variation of my popular B.U.K...

How's this for a retiment gift... This large Bowie is forged from 368 layers of 52100 & 15N20 done in a "ladder" pattern. The cutting edge is 10 1/2" and the overall length is just under 18". This Bowie has an integral, scrolled S-guard pulled from the blade. The slotted throat is bold...

Well, as I mentioned, the gent who ordered the "Big Carver" asked me to make a Fork to match.... let me know what you think (I know my pix arenn't the best, really wish I was able to have Chuck Ward photo the pair). So, how'd I do?

Here are a few new pieces that have come off the mountain as of late... A "Titan" necker in chainsaw damascus with desert ironwood burl scales and stainless steel handle bolts. Has a really nice pouch sheath with fish skin inlay by Lance Parrish. "Don's Feild Knife" done in "antiqued"...

Thanks very much guys. Some of these are for the Little Rock show and some are gone but, I've got a couple new pieces coming up for the show as well. Hope to see you there if possible. J.

Hey Laurence, No sweat. I've done carving set with French and German Chef knives as well but, I have had a few requests for sets like this. This is one of several I have left already sold..... plus, who likes rules anyway. Eric, the finish is done with a combination of yellow mustard and Clorox...

Thanks bud, I got these pieces at the Blade show.

Hello all, Well, here is one of my new favorite styles... the Baby Bowie. I did a few of these last year and have finally gotten around to doing a couple more. I also, picked up some more ivory to suit this style.... can you tell I like it. Hope you do too and thanks again. J. "Baby Bowie"...

Hello all, I hope everyone enjoyed the holidays and is coping well with the cold (if it is cold where you are, it sure is here). Below is a very nice Hunter I just finished up. A very classy looking but, functional piece. I hope you like it. Thanks again, J. This spear-point style...
