    Another one

    Thanks guys, Don I started with 5/8" stock.
  2. Here's another integral just finished. Find these funner to make than regular forged knife plus not much work fitting the bolster. Keith

    Integral

    Thanks Metal99, no the maple wasn't stabilized professionally. It was sealed with linseed oil and half a dozen coats of paste wax. Prior to that I used vinegar to color the grain.

    Integral

    Hi guys forged from a piece of coil spring. The blade is 7" the whole thing is 11". First time trying an integral. Wanted an old looking belt knife and this is what I came up with. Tell me what you think. Keith
  9. Thanks Robert, the first 3 are old files and the last one is 1080.
  10. Haven't posted here in awhile. Been working on knives and trying to find my style. Here are a few I haven't posted here, or at least I don't think I have. Regards, Keith.
  11. I like it all, except the camo cord. I agree a solid color cord would be more complimentary to the whole package. Still a very nice looking and well finished knife. Keith.
  12. That's a cool little knife you made. I like it and love the deep etch. Keith.
  13. Phil the blade was a cutoff of a old saw mill blade, a fella told me it was probably L2. I have no idea but it gets very hard and hold a heck of an edge. The handle material was antique steer horn cuttings and the bolsters, if that is what they are called, are for an attempt at welding cable (not too successful). Still new to this have only been attempting knife making since right before Christmas. But I am enjoying it thoroughly. Keith.
