Sam Salvati Posted March 3, 2007 Share Posted March 3, 2007 WOW, very nice work. Love the use of the horn, for 2 knives like that, is that a wood guard? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ted T Posted March 4, 2007 Share Posted March 4, 2007 Dav, Nice, nice knives. (Try saying that real fast, 3-times in a row). Just kidding! But I am not kidding when I say that I find your design concept is interesting and artistic. Because of the skilled knife makers found on IFI, I have turned my attention toward wanting to learn to make knives myself. I am getting the idea that forging and finishing a knife, is kind of like blacksmithing on steroids. Be safe, be safe! Ted Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blkbear Posted March 4, 2007 Share Posted March 4, 2007 Very nice work! The horn handles work very well with your blades. Brian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dav Posted March 4, 2007 Author Share Posted March 4, 2007 Thanks for your comments I've really liked and lurnt things doing these knives. I usaly forge a blade and I adapt the handle to the blade. Here it was different and a good exercise for me to make the blade from the handle. The wood guard is olive-tree. Good evening Dav Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
