Next Saturday a town near here is celebrating the 225th anniversy of the Battle of Kings Mountain. They are having a reinactment and a craft fair, so I decided to make some knives and get a table.

All the kinves have been "aged" and are made of 1095 steel (except the large bowie which is made from an old file)

Riflemans knife and large Bowie

Bowies

Skinners

Trade knives

Your comments are welcome as always.
Thanks for looking.

Very nice work! I like'em all, too. If you get a chance, how about some detail on when the Kings Mountain celebration is going to be. You're pretty close to me amd I'd like to get down and see your work.
