triw Posted January 16, 2008 Share Posted January 16, 2008 Hello form sunny northern Arizona. I have been playing at being a blacksmith for several years, Went to Frank Turleys school in New Mexico about 6 years ago and been a fun hobby. Learned to make knives by taking a couple of classes taught by Ray Rybar a master bladesmith. Am trying to make my first tomahawk for my nephew who is serving in a ranger outfit in Afganstan. (He requested one for Christmas) Found this site looking for plans to make a guilatine style tool to help me while I work alone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
