Hi Ronin bit buzy at moment as you can see got these ruff forge out and will take me a while to get these up out of the way . the spike one is from a big old rat tail file , other from 1 inch coil 5160 the other 1045 .thank you for your interest .. Chris
May 20, 201412 yr I understand. Keep up the beautiful work. I wasn't asking you to do a special project for the pics btw. just, if you get a moment every once in a while during the steps to finishing one or another, snap a pic here and there, so that when you get it finished we can see the progress from rough to finished. (I know, I'm being greedy, lol. But like many on here, I love pics and great work.)

May 27, 201412 yr Chris, One thing I appreciate about you, other than your craftmanship, is you always take time and respond to each person that comments on your posts. Thanks for that, very considerate of you.
