My 4th and 5th finished Knives

[John N]

Hi guys, new to the forum and this is my first thread so go easy on me unsure

I first put hammer to anvil about 3 years ago and pretty quickly decided I liked patterwelding, though ive got a pretty pitifull record of finishing knives, now im pretty happy with how the steel is turning out ive started to put the odd handle on,.

this one is my 4th one completed, its 15n20 / 1080 feather pattern, kind of a camp / kitchen knife. (excuse first 2 rubbish photos!)

a close up of the steel,...

This is the last one I finished, its 15n20 / 20c random (with a bit of a loose dogstar pattern cut in) 8 1/2 blade with G10 handle, stainless pins & tubes (it was going to be a 10" blade but for a heat treat mishap! )

all feedback appreciated !

Those look incredibly practical and very well made! Excellent job, the damascus on both is awesome!

Really like the feather pattern damascus, wouldn't mind building a knife from that myself. You need to finish more knives....they look great! 2thumbs
