GeorgeLots Posted June 12, 2014 Share Posted June 12, 2014 Hello all. Been a while since last posted a complete attempt. Well this year i finished 2 more knifes so i thought i should share with ya all and hear what you have to comment on them :) 1st is a leaf spring fully forged knife. 14cm blade 27 cm total length. handle is olive tree wood and bronze bolster. The sheeth is hand made with leather and bronze leaf decoration. 2nd knife is made out of an HSS metal shaw blade . 8cm blade 20 cm total. The scabbard and the handle are from walnut tree wood. This is a decorative knife mostly. it cuts but not for great use. The mosaic pin is my own creation :) The designs pn the blade were done with the electro etch method. Hope you like them. Waiting to hear your comments on those 2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crazy Ivan Posted June 12, 2014 Share Posted June 12, 2014 Both of those are great! I especially love the way the 1st one flows and the handle style of the 2nd. Good work. -Crazy Ivan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThomasPowers Posted June 17, 2014 Share Posted June 17, 2014 Unless you need a knife for prying, (not an unknow task, like disjointing game), I would move the end of the bevel higher on the first knife to make it a better slicer. (and lighter in the hand). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Benton Frisse Posted July 2, 2014 Share Posted July 2, 2014 That blade shape on the first one... wow! Super cool. How well did the olive tree wood work in terms of sanding and shaping? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robakyo Posted July 3, 2014 Share Posted July 3, 2014 The profile on the first knife is really cool. Also, the way the sweep of the bolster/guard almost meets the cutting edge is an unexpected surprise. I'm having difficulty explaining that. The second knife, to me anyway, has a Scottish feel. I like how you finished the back of the handle too. Robert Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
