Hunterbow Smithy Posted July 21, 2015 Share Posted July 21, 2015 Made from 1/2" x 1/2" x 18" square stock with a white oak handle. The finish is a burnt beeswax / turpentine mixture. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ausfire Posted July 21, 2015 Share Posted July 21, 2015 Clever. I like the drawn out section behind the business end of the poker. Nicely balanced design. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frosty Posted July 21, 2015 Share Posted July 21, 2015 I held off commenting on your poker last night when you posted. I had to put my idea of what a poker is aside. I really like the flow and how it all fits in a pleasing whole. The handle looks like it's comfortable in the hand and the white oak scales are pleasing to the eye. The taper of the shaft is gracefully pleasing as well. At first I thought the transition from shaft to tool end was too abrupt but the more I look at it the more I like the contrast it gives and how it balances the flow making a very hand like body for the tines. The tines are very finger like, making for an almost fun anticipation of poking the fire with your fingers. It makes handling the fire vicariously, better.The more I look at your poker the more like it and the more I want to see the rest of the set. I'll bet it'd be a very marketable fire and cook set style.Frosty The Lucky. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VaughnT Posted July 21, 2015 Share Posted July 21, 2015 Never thought to make a handle like that. Consider the idea stolen!Excellent design and build, imo. Unique, different, unusual, unexpected.... I like it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
