Had a very busy day. Have to take Stella to the vet tomorrow, so I wanted to get as much done today as I could.

Here is a breakdown of my day.

Ground out the blanks, beveled, and drilled holes on these 6:
Hawk
Potawatomi Plus
Kephart
Tin
new design
new design

I was waiting on handle materials for the PDTs that are going out, so while I was waiting for the mail I made handles for all but the hawk and tin knife.

Still waiting, so I made 2 leather sheaths, and 1 kydex for PDT`s.

Mail finally came, so I made the handles for 5 PDT`s, and have them glueing on.

When I get back tomorrow I`ll heat treat the 6 blades. While they are heat treating I`ll shape the handles on the PDT`s.
 
That is quite a bit of work for 1 day. I don't think I could do all of that in 1 month and come out a quarter as good.
 
You got a lot done, very productive day.

Two new designs- looking forward to photos and specs..
 
Actually one new design. I just liked it so much that I made one for myself, the other one is for outdoorsfan. It`s his new design, the Trapline.
 
The Trapline?Good name,sounds interesting.
And it's good to be busy,makes the day go faster.
 
Dropped off Stella at the vet at 8 this morning, will pick her up tomorrow at 11. Finished heat treating the 6 blades from yesterday, and made the rest of the sheaths for the P.D.T.`s. Backordered handle material for my personal P.D.T. II arrived today, got those handles glueing on now. Time to kick back for a bit. Watch this weekend for some sweet photos of the knives as I finish them.
 
Another 1 am start to the day. This morning, I cleaned up these blades, and now have the handles glueing on.
