Man, those are really sweet Nice work!!

I see the first blade is damascus. What mix are you using . It looks very nice and has a different flow to it. Mike

Thanks Jens, I'm familiar with your stuff from Don Fogg's Site. I've been a member there for a while.

That one was inspired by a knife forged out at a Hammer-in that I had at my house last year, don't really have a name for it. Here are the specs on it:

The blade is about 6 7/8" from tip to back of Ricasso and is 1 7/16" at it's
widest. Overall length is just over 11". The blade material is 1050 (ish?) that I forged down from round stock clay coated to get it to show a Hamon .

I originally planned to put some wood scales on the handle but decided to try the hemp cord and really liked how it felt.

Thanks for your time,
Brent:)

I'm new to the forum so I figured I'd post some of my recent work, well not all that recent, I've been on a little hiatus while the kids are out of school. Anyway here are some examples:

Thanks for the welcome fella's!! Jerry, I have the feeling we have met or maybe the othe Jerry has mentioned you? Do you ever go to his place?

Hi, I'm a Bladesmith who's starting to do a little blacksmithing. I was directed to this site today and it looks like it will be a great resource!

Great to meet you,
Brent
