joshua.M Posted June 12, 2011 Author Share Posted June 12, 2011 Nice knife Josh. Did you get the coal supply problem sorted out? No, i still have no coal, this knife was forged when i had it, i am forging with raw wood now and the odd bit of charcoal. I am saving to buy a 2 burner diamondback blacksmith propane forge (donations welcome ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
