1095 and Cocobolo Chopper

[Bailey Knives]

This is an order that is long overdue. I still have another to make for him including a couple sheaths. I forged this one from 1095 and I think it has a great hamon, except the pictures don't show it well.

Here it is.

Man, that thing is awesome!

Great looking blade. Its nice seeing one of your hamons on a full size knife, the smaller ones you do its like just a little window into the hamon.

Beautiful work Matt. Never surprised to see yet another I'd love to have.

Whoa, that is a beaut there.

 

[Mr.LCV]

Awesome as always!

 

[Bailey Knives]

Yeah, I like this one. I have to get to work on the sheath soon.
Thanks for the comments everyone.

This craftsmanship is at its best! Great work on the cocobolo and steel!

 

[Bailey Knives]

Thanks, guys. I have another one that is similar underway that I will probably be taking with me to my next knife show.

The hamon looks great and I really enjoy your makers mark:thumbup:

Awesome looking knife you got there. Nothing better than that patina / scale look on the blade.

This looks to me to be an eclectic mix of metal work, finishes, and materials that came together just right. I really like the outcome. Thanks for posting.

Great work. The cocobolo looks fantastic with the forged blade. I like your makers mark, too... is that etched or engraved?

 

[Bailey Knives]

engraved
Thanks everyone.
