Ed Steinkirchner Posted May 26, 2011 Share Posted May 26, 2011 This is the new folder i made last week. patterned after the japanese higonomaki but with some extra work. The case is brass sheet chased with a pattern (that i freehanded), chiseled in using butcher chisels, a small flatter, a small X stamp, and a pointed nail for the stippling. The blad is a scrap of sawblade off the bench, and the copper pin is telegraph wire. any opinions or suggestions welcome.
