You know its a skill when someone makes it look easy,I was amazed at the speed you work only 11 mins thats fastVideo of the carnage...thought it might be of interest
Copperhead for me.I just want to know when my fellow Antique Yellow voters will get theirs... kidding of course.![]()
Some may have have been paying attention and did not wish to kick the dead horse or possibly show respect for those who worked very hard volunteering their time and effort to bring the vast majority a special knife.Anyone who wasn't critical of how the sale went down wasn't actually paying attention...sorry for not whitewashing that debacle for you.

Wow, I don't know how I thought you did that, but, being all done by hand is incredible to me! Fantastic work!!Video of the carnage...thought it might be of interest
This knife was a good'un!! Hard act to follow!!Usually, by this time too, a new thread has already found itself being populated with ideas and fantasies for the next knife. It's quiet, for now, I hope it stays that way.
I've decided to name mine Bram - to immortalize the life sucking process that this knife represents. Life-sucking aside, ol' Bram is getting a lot of use though, we somehow were able to come up with a heck of a knife for 2021.

Was that the tool with the white handle? What were you using in the beginning, a tiny chisel?Yup, pneumatic...like a palm-sized jackhammer![]()
Ah ok, I was watching it on my phone so the video was tiny.The white handle is a felt-tip markerThis is the jackhammer, and the chisel is what you saw just sticking out between my fingers.
