Last year someone asked me if I could make a carving set. As with just about everything in this industry, for me, I said that I haven't tried it yet, but I'm willing to give it a shot. Well, since then I've gotten 3 more orders. I'm definitely NOT a photographer. Good thing I can make a decent knife. I think the hardest part of the whole process is getting the bend in the fork just right. Anyways, here is my most recent.
Carving Set:
Steel: 440C satin finish
HRC: 58hrc Blade (fork not hardened)
Bolsters: Brass
Handle Material: Inlaced Acrylester - White Pearl
Accent: Onyx with gold web
Storage Box: Poplar with mocha gel stain. A buddy made the box itself but I made the supports on the inside with felt to keep from scratching the handles and steel. Then stained and sealed it and added the latch on the front. It's actually a latch for a leather satchel that I modified for this purpose.
(My wife made the display board here with my logo. She's an awesome woman. Lucky to have her and her support.)
