Hello
Im Tacus from Argentina.These are 2 of my last knives and i want to share and have your opinions. The 1st knife blade is made of Sae 1070 bandsaw tooth and Drilling shaving of 15N20. The Kama style blade was made of bandsaw tooth only.
Hope you like them!

Those are both very kewl and unique. Think a double guard on the first one would do the trick for me but I love the efforts put forth to develop a unique style. Nice images too.
 
I sure hope you mean "latest" and not "last"! Lovely knives, particularly number one. I agree with Murray, a double guard would rock it that much harder.
 
That second knife is really something special. The first one too, but I like the kindjal style handle on the second. And the fullers on both just blow my mind! Could you give us an idea how you cut them and got them looking so nice?

thanks Travis:
for the fullers i use dremel with a rought stone disk for grinding and abrasive rubber discs for finishing, soft hand stones # 400 and # 600. In some cases when i have to remove a lot of steel i use the 4 1/2"angle grinder with a guide and the 6mm disc.
 
Very unique knives.
I am not sure if I like the carved out portions of the blades. (just my personal taste)
But the quality of your knife making such as the fit and finish look really good.
Impressive work. I hope to see more of your knives.
