Thanks for the compliments.I did'nt get into details untill I was sure I could get pics posted.
The bowie on top is forged from 3/8"x 1-1/4" 5160, stainless fittings,red fiber spacers and stabilized African Zebrawood.On it's way out as soon as I finish the sheath.
The one in the center is the first knife I forged [5160] that actually became a knife. Hammer marks in the blade and no plunge lines but left that way so I have reason to keep it!! Also stainless fittings,leather & stainless spacers and figured maple that was originaly firewood. I made this one about four years ago.
The small bird-n-trout is the last one I finished.Just left as it was ordered for a christmas gift.Forged from 5/8" 5160 round stock.Brass fittings with leather & brass spacers and whitetail antler.Sheath made and stitched by me,also made the stamps that I did the tooling with.
Thanks for looking, and best holliday wishes to all!!!!
