frozenforge good job that knife looks great !!

​wow that's great I didn't think they would go the far . I have yet to make a set of tongs guess I am chicken .I know they will be ugly .

what I like about rr spikes is it helps you learn how much material you have and how far it will go, and they are dirt cheep to play around with . why was the print so small ?

Nice C/L find old mobile forge in mesquite Buffalo Army Forge No. 571 http://stgeorge.craigslist.org/tls/4895419103.html

Hay guys , I have been trying to stay busy and got a few things done . I finished the brake drum forge not that I need it after building the bigger one , but I like to finish what I start . And I found some 3/4 x 2 x 16" stock and I'am almost done with my first hardy hole tool , a cut off, I still need to weld it and heat treat it . And I am almost done with my very first railroad spike knife . I hope all is well with you guys !!! http:// http:// http:// http:// http:// http://
