Fall/Winter .225" 8670 Run

[David Mary]

This is a sheet of .225" 8670, which will be on its way to HAI waterjets in Trenton, Ontario, Canada for waterjet cutting. After that, it will be heat treated by Andy Pomorski in Picton, Ontario. The designs on this sheet include the Sylvan Camp Knife; The Sumo-Jitsu, an offshoot of the Pukko-Jitsu; Prototypes for the Little Lamb, Bleater, and Bloss; my take on a Chinese style cleaver; and a 16" Wakizashi inspired by a 13" piece from Bladeforums knifemaker, and Forged in Fire champion Joshua Fisher .

Best sheet to date!!!

 

[David Mary]

I'm thinking lots of these are going to end up with black Suretouch scales.

 

[tinfoil hat timmy]

that cleaver will move .... everything

 

[Hurrul]

Right on - that's a group of burly blades and heavy sheet of steel...

Thanks David, for making this work happen so a few Sylvan Camp knives could come into being.

 

[Wild Willie]

Pretty pumped about a sumo jitsu, especially in a super tough steel like this. Not that there's anything wrong with my puuko jitsu, I'd just like something I can field dress a Honda with.

 

[Joshua Fisher]

Looking forward to seeing how the wakizashi turns out, I need to make a few more of those.

Excited to be in on this run!

[MrMahalo]

is there a Sylvan without a home in this run?
I'm feeling feel some Elvish inspiration after watching Rings of Power.

 

[David Mary]

Good morning MrMahalo , and thank you for your interest. There is one Sylvan unclaimed at this time. Email incoming.

 

[FSA]

These are going to be fantastic! Can’t wait to take a Sylvan Camp knife into the woods .

[lmalterna]

That is good news and also ironic- I received a 2" wide piece of 8670 today!

Lots of potential in all those dull blanks. Besides the Sylvan Camp knife that's mine from this run, I'm pretty curious to see the sword progress along in it's build.

 

[David Mary]

Looking forward to seeing these. !!

This one's yours, and my "next couple weeks" comment did not apply to it.

 

[lmalterna]

Wow! Very nice. I like the heart shaped cutout under the scales. No rush for me though. I go under the robotic knife tomorrow and will not be cutting much for a few weeks. Gives me something to look forward to though

I hope all goes well and wish you good recovery after your operation.
