I like making knives. I am not prejudice of styles or genre's. It can be Tactical, dress, kitchen cutlery, brut de forge, Japanese and the list goes on!!
I really like it when I see other makers that don't tie themselves to one style. Burt foster and Jason knight come to mind, those guys make a little bit of everything, and make them all look good!!
Here are 2 I just finished up. The first one is a Scout fighter that I made for my Dad, for his 30th wedding anniversary. Blue is his favorite color, and this is his favorite blade style I make. The blade is 1/4" O1 that has been acid etched and tumbled. The pins are carbon fiber and it has a copper tube.
The second is a small 5" chef knife. The blade is Aldo's 1095, and the handle is stabilized Amboyna burl. Again carbon fiber pins, and a stainless mosaic pin. It also has a tapered tang. This one is going to the OKCA mini winter show in december.
Let me know what you guys think.
