The blade and spring are damasteel. The bolsters, pins and liners are stainless and the scales are mammoth ivory. I have been wanting to make one of these since I found out about them a couple of years ago. The damasteel is from winning the giveaway BossDog ran a while ago. I finally put it to...

I made this folding dagger for a dagger challenge on the Australian Blade Forum late last year. The was the first dagger I have ever ground and really enjoyed the challenge of doing this one. There was the design challenge of getting the dagger to fold without exposing the top sharp edge as well...

This is my first one from designing in CAD and my first flipper model. I usually make much smaller slipjoints but I love a flipper. Since I can't import them any more I figured I better make one. There are a few changes I would like to make for the next one. Mostly due to not being show about...

Another one finished up this weekend. This was originally the one I started last year for the CK&G forum build off. Finished off with a lot more understated finish compared to its sibling. I love how both of them came out in the end. I really need to stop making so many knives I wish I could...

G'Day everyone, I have been doing a build off on the Aussie knife forum and thought I might post it here too. One of the members there rslt designed the knife and put it on the forum to get some opinions on the design and we all loved it enough that we ended up get a few knifemakers to take...

Finished this one a little while ago and have been meaning to post some pictures of it. I would have to say I am super happy with how this one came out both in fit and finish as well as the walk and talk. I am sure the new owner is enjoying it. CPM S35VN blade and spring 410/416 stainless...

Quite a while ago BossDog gave out some Elmax with the hope that people would test it out and post the results. I have finally gotten around to doing something with mine (sorry it took so long). I am doing 2 liner locks with it. These will be the first liner lock I have made using my own design...

About every 3 months or so I run a course teaching how to make slipjoints. For many of the students it will be the first knives they have ever made. These are the results of the 4th course I have run. We start on a friday night with some theory, the plans for the weekend and starting on layout...

When Bossdog released the Bulldog framelock kit he let some go for a cheap price. All he asked was to write up a tutorial of the build as we went. So here we go a little later than I would have liked to have been able to deliver on for him. So here is the kit as I received it. All the parts...

I was starting my Bulldog kit (Thanks BossDog) build and found I needed a few different counterbores. Since most counterbores are for the screws the pilot part doesn't really help when you are doing a pivot hole. Anyway long story short I found a nice link on making a counter bore...

First one for 2011. I had a bit of a dilemma about finishing this one off. As I was peening the centre pin on the folder I took it a bit too far and got a big chip out below the pin. I had the choice to redo it all on a knife that was basically finished, scrap it or finish it up and keep it for...

I have been finishing up some knives for the upcoming Adelaide Knife Show on Nov 6-7. I am really excited to show this one off as it is my first multiblade folder. I really need to get some better photos but I put together this quick edit. 3/32 O1 steel Stainless liners and bolsters...

Jose Diaz came down to certify a bunch of us as BladeSports cutters. I think he found all of us to be certifiable for sure :D Anyway it was a great day. Good to learn some of the techniques people have figured out on how to cut all the different materials. I took a bit of video that I put up...
