TheoRockNazz Posted February 25, 2017 Share Posted February 25, 2017 San mai of wrought iron shell with 15N20 and 1095 cutting edge. Handle window contains LEGO bricks tumbled at random angles before being sanded down to show their cross-sections. Black cotton ito with 3d printed cast brass menuki. I've been having a lot of fun with these window knives, and have another half dozen in the works. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JHCC Posted February 25, 2017 Share Posted February 25, 2017 I saw your WIP video on this and thought it looked really cool. Nice to see how it turned out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThomasPowers Posted February 25, 2017 Share Posted February 25, 2017 Beautiful knife, well executed; but I have to ask why you call it a tanto? I remember the craze a couple of decades ago where *everything* was a tanto---in the Knives annual they even had a "viking tanto" and so am a bit gunshy of the term applied to blades.

TheoRockNazz Posted February 25, 2017 Author Share Posted February 25, 2017 ... it vaguely rhymed with LEGO... haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another beautiful knife Theo, I love the contrast between the edge and shell. I'm thinking folk making RR spike KSOs should call them Tontos. Tonto's knife was forged from a RR spike taken from the evil robber baron's rail road. Just thought of that and I needed to get out or I'd forget it as soon as I started reading the next post. What's next? Frosty The Lucky. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daswulf Posted February 25, 2017 Share Posted February 25, 2017 Really cool Theo! it's sort of funny that they are legos, with the blue under the wrap looks at first glance to be gemstones or something Man would a nicely laid out feather look great in one of those handles.

TheoRockNazz Posted February 26, 2017 Author Share Posted February 26, 2017 Frosty, there are a lot of window blades with animal heads and wacky integral guards coming soon, just you wait Das, Legos are precious to me, haha. I love the feather idea, gotta try that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lego's were my entire childhood, and probably the reason for what little engineering skills I have now haha. Beautiful blade by the way. Looks really clean.

C-1ToolSteel Posted February 26, 2017 Share Posted February 26, 2017 I guess, if you get lost, Legos would be better entertainment than a couple feet of paracord. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lanternnate Posted February 26, 2017 Share Posted February 26, 2017 Looks like something that would fit right into Ninjago! Awesome work again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
