Looks great!! Excellent work! Perfect finish

That's awesome!! She could be a great future knifemaker some day! :)

Ah okay, I was always under the impression that all steels had to quench to a colder temperature within seconds of coming out of the heat. I suppose I learn something new every day. Good info though. Thanks for the help!

Thanks for the replies guys. Although, how does it cool fast enough in the air? Isn't air cooling the equivalent of annealing the steal because it's slow? I would think it would need to be quenched in oil to have that rapid temperature transition that allows for the quench. Can anyone clear up...

Hey guys, sorry it's been months since I posted on here. I used to be a really active user, but then school started back up again and I've been busy writing papers, doing homework and such. In any case, Christmas break is coming, and with it so does the knife making. I have a few questions...

Glad I saw this. Will definitely be writing to my representatives.

Yes, this was very helpful! Thanks for the response!

Hello all, I haven't been on here in a while, and I haven't been knife making in a while either cause I've been pretty busy this summer. But I'm going to try to finish up my knife and its sheath before school starts again on the 26th. So I have a week. I have my fasteners ordered, I have the...

Great looking blade!! Excellent job!

Looks awesome!! Love the fit and finish

Would definitely be cool if you joined the Royal Marines though! Those guys are some of the toughest in the world. I wanted to join the U.S. Marines right after high school, but I ended up having a medical problem and they wouldn't take me. But it's definitely a great goal to have if you go for it.

Wow, that is awesome Boss Dog!! Really amazing story. It makes me even more proud to be a supporter of your business. One of the things I noticed when I received an order from you guys is I had a "Thank you! :)" On every receipt. It's little details like that which really mean a lot to a...

Man, that's rough. You'll be in my prayers for sure. But congratulations about your fourth child!! That's always a massive blessing. Glad to hear your family is there for you! And yeah, knife making is REALLY therapeutic. Really makes me feel accomplished myself.

Hahaha, I'm the same exact way! Can't get enough of knives. I have a pretty big collection myself. In fact, I posted pictures of my collection in the collectors corner in case you're interested in seeing them. Yep! Target shooting is one of my favorite things to do. I also own a lot of guns...

You got it! Prayers on the way

Great news!! Keep up the work knife rights!

Very impressive!! Love the design. I don't have much experience with the parang, but I've heard nothing but good things about it. Your work looks excellent!

Yep, that's my biggest goal right now is to get a good quality belt grinder. I was looking at saving for the ones offered on USA knifemaker, as I really liked their design. But they are a bit pricey for my budget as of right now. Once I get a job other than minimum wage, I'll probably have much...

Had a question for all the more experienced knife makers out there about tools needed for knife making. I wanted to know....what makes a complete knife making shop? What would you say are all the tools and equipment I'd need to make a well equipped shop? I currently have a small wheel grinder, a...

Yeah, I was actually wanting to do that, but the only thing I had available for a center punch was my knife, and I didn't wanna damage the tip. I probably should of waited and bought a center punch......but I assumed it would be fine. I think I'll invest in one for future knives and projects...
