[Stacy E. Apelt - Bladesmith]

Sam, Your forging is definitely getting better. Now, if you can only learn to control those bends while forging the bevels you could get one straight eventually.

You split those rocks with your sword ??? WOW !...Must be BAINITE !

 

[Sam Salvati]

Thanks guys !

Marekz, just a little cutlass type blade, forged and ground from 5160, going with some type of burl-y wood or rayskin over micarta or G10, not sure yet.

Thanks Stacy, when I get the forge back up and running I will do a nice straight one , gotta get these ones finished first hopefully one or two in time for Ashokan.

Robert, NO BAINITE HERE!!!

Nice! I actually like the recurve on this sword.

Thanks Keith, It is an unusual shape, there is just something weird about it I cannot put my finger on.
