That's cool, I like it!


Mitch

You better be careful where you put it. It looks like it could take root wherever you set it.


Mitch

Very Cool!!


Mitch

CurleyGeorge, thanks for looking!

nwaite, Yes it's just a chisel & hammer. Random verticle lines.

Marksnagel, make sure you post pics too. Flatten the bottom a bit to make it sit up straight.


Mitch

Thanks everyone.
Prof, no real pattern. It's a typical Fredrick's cross (or split cross). I know there are instructions on this site on how to make one. I just shaped mine and used a chisel for texturing. It's textured that way on both sides.

Thanks for looking & the comments.

Mitch

Great looking knives Garey. I really like the pattern on the blades.


Mitch

Great looking knife! Do you have any close ups of the blade?



Mitch

Ok, sorry. The link above doesn't work. :angry:
Maybe one of our very talented administrators can straighten this out. :rolleyes:

My link


macbruce, I tried to copy an image but could only got this link. I hope it works. If not, I do have a picture in the Projects section of the Gallery. Thanks for looking.


Mitch

Thanks. The texturing is just a lot of chisel work.
The bar in the back is the handle portion of a steak turner I made. It has a bottle opener on the end also.


Mitch

Cool idea! I like it. I may just have to "borrow" it. Thanks for posting.


Mitch

Those are beautiful!

True. You can't let yourself get dehydrated while slaving over a hot grill!

Thanks. I appreciate it. I usually take my pics with a digital camera but was in a hurry.

This is really nice! What size stock did you start with and I assume you used a power hammer?
What was it used on?


Mitch

Very nice!


Mitch

Thank you.

Thanks. It actually looks darker in this pic than it is. I cleaned it real good with a wire brush on a side grinder, got it good & hot & sprayed it with a clear poly urethane finish.


Mitch

I meant to post more pics but got an error. will try more soon.


Mitch

Very nice! Thanks for posting.


Mitch

I like it! It flows well.


Mitch

WOW!! This is simply outstanding! I love evrything about it. If you don't mind, I'm going to save copies of this for future work at my house. Thank you for posting. BTW, where is this located? And how long did it take you to complete it?



Mitch

VERY nice!


Mitch

Very nice! I really like it. Thanks for posting!
(ditto on tireif's question)

Mitch

Nice setup! I'm going to have to save these pics for when I build my next one.
Thanks for posting.
