Sweet knife! The blade shape is cool

Cool blade I like the design

Sweet knife! I like the handle.

Good looking hawks! I like the look that you get using rasps

Cool knife! Where did you get the pins from?

Cool thanks Matto. I'll give it a shot.

Cool, well this weekend I'll really try to throw the heat to it and see if it gets any easier. Thanks guys

Well I'm heating to a bright orange and I'm using a three pound cross pien

I'm trying to forge a knife from a farriers rasp but holy cow, this stuff is solid! I hot cut a piece off of the end, got it up to forging temp and with a solid blow I hardly moved any of the material. It just seems like it's really tough, I've never had this much trouble with a piece of steel. The piece I cut is about five inches long and probably 1/8" thick. I finally got the blade end shaped but I'm trying to draw out the handle end and I'm having trouble. Any advice would be great.

That's a really good idea!

I thinks it's about 4000rpm.

I had a cheap circular saw that I picked up at a yard sale for $3. Well the casing broke so I took it apart. Could I use the motor and build a buffer or a grinder? Any help would be great.

Great work! They all look good

I'm still new to this whole making hot steel do what I want it to thing but, what's the advantage of the shape? Why would that shape be better than a cross pien for example?

I love the knives! I like the wrapped handles

Beautiful bowie. I love the handle

That's one of the coolest blades ever. If it were mine I'd hate to use. I'd be afraid I'd damage it.

Gorgeous knife! Really cool

Really really cool looking blade

Nice knife, very simple but well done

Beautiful work! I love the handle and guard

Really nice file work! Probably the best I've ever seen

Really cool blade! I can almost smell the stir fry

Nice blade!

Great blade, I love the file work. Did you draw out the file by hand? How long did it take?
