Looks good, but MY idea of a black knife has one edge so the back of the blade can have filework on it and the crown can be polished and. Some times I will carve faces into it. Your work is top notch I hope this helps. Duck. Oh the crown is a good place to put a clan badge.

How does one make a maple leaf?

If you polish the edges and carefully heat them they turn blue and brass hilliate, wire brush and grinder all change the colour for a dramatic look. And for those without Plasma cutters can use grinders with sheet steel, different size cut off wheels thicknesses leaving the ragged edges. -

When children learn their letters the next thing is usually drawing. Axes have a nice size space to work with, and maybe a nice keltic knot. Blacksmithing is a lot of fun, teaching just adds to the fun! Glad to see your having so much.

Making rams for .......Dodge trucks............horse heads. and putting a ring around the whole thing was something they did on the old hood ornaments. I saw an amazing oldy of a flying duck on a hood and all the edges were rounded off. Many were conceptual ideas of birds and airplan with a lockinges with coloured plastic inserts. An important thought how to make them vandal proof, screwed from the inside with a locking hood.
