Whats going on in the shop

[Daniel Rohde]

I have been finishing up some EDC and hunter and snapped a few photos to share
there 52100 triple edge quenched and etched(if you couldn't guess) and they have a VERY slight convex grind- very subtle.

Here's one of them close to finished it still needs some detail work but its looking nice! first time using kirinite for me. This on is also a right handed knife
52100 triple quenched.
This morning:

Later...

Nice looking blades and I like Kirinite. It shapes fine and no nasty formaldehyde or little fish hooks like Micarta & G-10

 

[Daniel Rohde]

Thanks! yeah, it's pretty neat material...I'm not to sure how it will hold up yet but I guess I will find out.

 

[BonhamBlades]

I am really starting to like the look of kirinite. Beautiful knife.

 

[Daniel Rohde]

Thanks!

Heres another I'm working on(52100 steel) there is allot of WD-40 on it right now.

 

[John Wilson]

I'm really digging the look you get in your blades.

 

[Daniel Rohde]

Thanks! I really enjoy good hardening lines

[Calvin Robinson]

A lot of hard work represented there. Your getting serious about this aren't you Jim?

Try to Calvin, two of the slipjoints are my youngest son's Zachary's, he had been working in the shop with me the last couple of months before moving back to Tennessee. It was really nice getting to work with one of my boy's and pass on some of what I've learned.

I hope to sell a few of my other slipjoints to fiance some material and equipment purchases.

Heres the blade and handle finished up! I really like how the handle turned out it so comfy!

and working up the handle on this one. I'm really like ing the etched and forged finish on the blade, that coupled with the black micarta and red liners and this
will be awesome!

I got sheath and a picture done on the above knife:

Here's another! I generally make a couple knives at a time(2-4) so it's fun when your finishing a couple up!
