Just wanted to share my first two knives with the community that helped make it happen.
I waited until I had the proper equipment to do everything myself from concept, heat treating, to the final polishing.
I have an order on the way of leather and tools to try my hand at sheaths. We''ll see how that goes :)
I welcome all constructive criticism.






 
Specs:

Overall: 8"
Blades: 4"
Steel: Aldo's 1/8" 1084 Heat treated in digitally controlled oven quenched in Parks 50.
Handle Materials: Black paper Micarta, Ivory Micarta, Buckeye Burl, red,white, and black spacers.

I figure that if I sell them for $2896.54 ea. I'll hit minimum wage :)
I guess speed will come with practice.
 
Mighty nice first knives.
Slow is Smooth, Smooth is Fast
Dozier
Accuracy beats Speed
