#1 Looking to pick up a couple straight razor blanks - i.e., ground and heat treated, I can do the final honing but won't argue if it's already done. One will be for my son's college graduation gift. Something classy like damascus, or with a hamon, or maybe just plain - function over fashion. I...

This is one I did last year for our church-school benefit that was raffled off, The blade is D2, differential HT by Lee Oates of Bearclaw and he also donated his time on the file work, stainless guard and cocobolo for the handle. The leather sheath is my crude handiwork. A penny for your thoughts.

Trying to catch up on posting some knives. Here's a couple bowies I finished up recently. Both have blades of D2, differential HT by Lee Oates of Bearclaw, approximately 6" and 8",OD/Black G10, stainless hardware, through-tang construction with glass breakers on the back end of the handles...

I have two Boker Plus Vox Rold knives up for sale. One is brand new in the box-still sealed, the other is pretty much the same except it did spend some time in my pack and I did a few cuts with it here and there-still shaves hair though. Also the plastic belt loop is cracked by one of the slots...

A stout drop-point with a 5" D2 blade approx 1/4" thick, differential heat treat by Lee Oates/Bearclaw Knives, stainless guard, black and olive drab G10 for an indestructible handle, with a basic kydex sheath. The knife balances right at the black spacer. This is for a friend's son who is...

This is a drop point knife I finished up last week for a fund raising raffle and auction. The blade is differentially heat treated D2 by Lee Oates/Bearclaw Knives. I was really surprised when I opened the package and found that he had polished up the blade and done the file work on the back of...

I just finished this up, and don't have a buyer, so figured I would put it up on a couple boards. This is a nice, stout bowie ground from 5160, differentially tempered heat treatment by Lee Oates/Bearclaw Knives (the back edge is hardened so you can sharpen it if you wish) with a very basic...

I've really enjoyed the forum so far, great crew, very friendly and helpful, and I hope I can contribute in some small way. I started out making a knife for my son, and of course, the rest is history... Since then I've been making and selling some knives to friends and locally here in central...

I just finished this up This is a nice, stout bowie ground from 5160, differentially tempered heat treatment by Lee Oates/Bearclaw Knives (the back edge is hardened) with a very basic kydex sheath. It has some nice heft and will chop ease, and while not the fastest blade, it can easily be...

Has anyone actually used, in other words actually shaved, with one of the damascus straight razor blades from Alabama Damascus, and if so, how was it? The price is right and I've always wanted a nice damascus razor... or two.

I work primarily with 5160 and D2 and starting to do some blades in 3V and of course I seem to go through belts like crazy or spend way to long shaping my blades. After reading the other thread reagrding the Cubitron belts, I tried to find some to fit my 4x36 sander and came up empty. After a...
