Jack-O-Lantern Posted August 1, 2014 Share Posted August 1, 2014 After fiddling with spikes for a little while now, I'm finally satisfied. As you all can tell I'm no knifesmith by a long shot, but my hammer finally keeps up with my imagination. So for now I'm satisfied. I'm gonna drift off into more deco type stuff now and see how well I handle it. When I return to blades I'll try big boy stuff like damascus, mokune gane, etching, and proper tempering. At least I hope so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
njanvilman Posted August 1, 2014 Share Posted August 1, 2014 All results are all part of the never-ending learning curve. Have fun and run with your imagination. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThomasPowers Posted August 1, 2014 Share Posted August 1, 2014 For that last picture: heat the handle end up, punch the eye in with a center punch and then after cool and cleaned up drop a nice glass bead in the holes with a bit of epoxy---I like the "glowing red ones" though the yellow ones with a vertical dark line are nice as well) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
