Bruce, Tell me a story about a knife and have no pictures. Go down to Attach files and click on Manage Attachments. Most likely you'll have to shrink them down alittle. Glad your finally getting some knives finished. I bet this next knife is just fine!
 
Got it,Thanks guys..
So what ya think,all carved out and all.Yes it also has a visiable hamon line,just cant see it in the picks.

Man that is sweet! I am a noob here so I haven't seen what you can do when you can actually see, but I am looking forward to it, they must be spectacular! Steven
 
I really like the rough look of forging on blades that taper down to a smooth satin or mirror finish. They are my favorite. You have taken that same idea and moved it up on the spline, the bolster and down the middle of the handle. Sweet!!! I really like it. I only hope that I can do this good of a job when I get my shop running.

Hey Bruce, Your eyes look like there working just fine to me! Glad to see your getting out knives like you use to make and good to see your back!
 
Just incredible Bruce, how far you've come in such a short time since your setback. I wish they'd get your peepers fixed and 100% usable, maybe a little longer. Keep producing this type of quality knifework, and you'll be back in the thick of things before you know it. I was really glad to see this post!
 
Bruce,That is one beautiful knife .Very nicely done and detailed all around.Keep up the good work and get better soon :)
 
If that's what you do half blind, WOW! I especially like the
mix of carving and texturing on the blade and the way the
handle is framed in the same bronze as the guard and pins.
 
Bruce,
If that's the work of a blind man maybe I need to gouge out my eyes!:eek:
The only drawback to that being that I would be unable to view your next one! Beautilful!:thumbup:

Beautiful Bruce, I'm glad to see your back up and runnin. Your work is always a pleasure to see and very inspirational. :thumbup:

Looking good! Man I love the stippled effect on the hardware and handle carving. Glad to see your back in the shop, at least a little.
 
And this is what you do when your half blind, fine, I quit, who's buying my stuff? :D

Sweet Bruce, and good to see you getting back to it.

Thanks again
Bruce

Beautiful work, Bruce... congratulations! Just revisited your web site for the 5th time this week to look at your past creations. Your newest blade does not show any loss in quality of your fine craftsmanship due to your impairment! Keep on with your excellent work, sir. :thumbup:
 
Bruce,
That is some mighty fine work there sir!!!

I have no ability what so ever when it comes to photography, BUT if you need any leather or have a sheath done, my offer still stands!!

Great to see ya working again!!!
