October 21, 201213 yr Hey everyone, been a while since I got any work done. I finally had the chance to work on this one lase week and got it all done. This is my third knife. I hope it's ok that I didn't forge this one although I did heat treat it in my coal forge. Let me know what you guys think! O1 tool steel OAL- 12-5/8" Blade length is 8-3/8" Black canvas micarta Hollow stainless pins My own hand made shieth.
October 21, 201213 yr Author Thanks man! I have some more forged blades on the go I will post them up when they are done.
October 22, 201213 yr Well done, especially for an early work. Nice filework and handle, looks comfortable.
October 22, 201213 yr That is a fine looking chopper! Leather work is just dandy too! Keep them coming!
October 22, 201213 yr Wow! Really nice work. I really like the style, the profile, Filework, and Leather work. What a great looking piece! How does it perform?
October 22, 201213 yr Author Thanks for the kind words everyone! Means a lot to me. Robakyo, I just sharpened it up today so the performance tests are to follow!
November 30, 201213 yr Is it me or is "3rd Knife" a bit misleading a title for this? You're clearly not a beginner but saying 3rd knife suggests you are. :(
November 30, 201213 yr Author Gabriel, I completed my first knife on march 22nd 2012. I'm new to knife making but a lot of the skill my dad tought me from building guitars really helped me in knife making. Thanks for the compliments everyone.
