Sold

I am selling all of my knife making equipment. I moved a couple years ago and haven’t set any of my tools back up and at this point I think it’s just time to move on to other hobbies. Everything is in excellent condition. I have an OBM chassis with platen, tool rest, tilt table, 8” contact...

I haven’t been making much lately. This is the latest chef knife I made. I made it for my Father in law for Christmas. 80CRV2 steel, walnut scales, G10 liners and pins. We used it on Christmas night to cut up the Christmas ham and it worked great!

Yesterday I got my KITH from Heikki. Wow! It is a gorgeous knife and I am very proud to own it! Thank you Heikki for the amazing knife. The craftsmanship is excellent! Maybe one day I’ll try my hand at some firework like you did on the spine. It adds a very nice touch! The sheath is also...

That knife and sheath look amazing! I can not wait to have it in my hands! Thank you Heikki!

I have a like new file guide with replaceable carbide sides. $100 shipped

1 or 3!

Here’s a few more pics in a little better light. I’m case you were wondering, that is oil on the blade. I leave a light coating on it for shipping to help keep it from rusting. Also, the texture on the spine and around the handle is intentional. I could have sanded it smooth but I use my...

DM me your address and I’ll get it in the mail to you tomorrow. I made a cool sleeve for it too.

Well.... it’s done. This knife fought me the whole way. The copper liners and pins turned out to be easy to work with because it’s soft material. That was also what made it difficult to work with! The stuff gets hot, and FAST! I got my scales glued up and I let it all set for a couple days...

Wow! That looks amazing and I am very grateful to be the recipient of this beautiful piece! Thank you!

Nope. 100% by Dremel. I use the large barrel sanders to do it.

Well I’m glad you said that because that’s been the plan all along!

I was asked to make a bearded axe recently. I have never made an axe before. I started this project and really wasn’t feeling that it was going well until a couple days ago. It really started to come around and today I finished the head. I truly think this is the nicest piece I’ve ever made!

Some progress made on Austin’s KITH. I’ve decided the blade is going to be black, black G10 scales, copper liners and copper pins! I can’t wait to get it finished!

I concur

Wow! That is going to be a gorgeous piece! I don’t feel worthy.

It is??? I think it’s filthy! You probably wouldn’t think that if you saw the rest of the bench!

The grinder is run through a VFD. It’s mounted on the back wall just out of the picture. I’ve heard of people using glass in their platen but had yet to really research it. How are they mounted? Epoxied on? What about thickness and is there a type of glass that should be used?

I’m using an OBM 2x72 grinder. I had the stock platen that I used for a while but I recently swapped it out for a KMG platen. The KMG offers substantially more room to get around the sides of the platen and the backer itself is thicker and heavier. Here are a couple pics of my set up.
