Here are a few I've made in the last few months.

Any thoughts, comments or critiques are welcomed.
Thanks for looking,
Chris
 
Thoughts: I think those are all superb!
Comments: I love your composite handles. What are those two twins made from?
Critiques: I really don't like the way your stuff looks so much better than mine!
 
Thank you all.

Anthony, the "twins" have stacked birch bark, walnut bolsters and paper mycarta liners.

Great job Chris. I especially like the last one, but you did a great job on all of them. How are you etching your makers mark?

Thanks Don. An etching machine is still on the short, or rather long list of things to get, so I am still using a battery charger. I have professionally made stencils from Ernie Grospitch but I believe I was burning them trying to get a good mark and put them away until I get a real machine. For now, I am using single use stencils made of vinyl graphic material(the kind you see in car windows). A local sign shop I found cut me about 100 stencils for about a dime a piece.

Thanks for the info. That's a good idea. I'll have to ck out one of the local print shops, see if someone can help me out.
