The wife has a hard time throwing crap away, and I'm grateful she saved this old mirrored jewelry vanity that was left in a closet by the previous owners. With knives piling up on top of the safe, she converted it to a tabletop display for me. She gutted it, patched up the holes, wrapped the outside, lined the inside, and replaced the mirror with a sheet of acrylic.

Dedicated this one for some of my favorite fixed blades (allowing one stowaway folder in there until the next case is complete, solely because it's sporting vintage emerald covers)...😀



That’s a good looking collection, a cool wife, and a great idea! There are several in there that I really like. Who made the three, on the upper right side, that look identical?

Thank you for the kind words. The 3 matching file bowies are made by Mike Geist of Liontribe Designs. Those were stocking stuffers for my 3 little guys a couple years ago.

Crag,
Keep me in mind for the middle one on the left side.. you have specifics as of the length of blade, steel and handle materiel yet?

This is a Much much much slimmed down version of my original dagger design I called "Anti-hero". That dagger was Very comfortable, but bulky.

An Ole time Maker here once said....You can tell amateur knife makers, by the size of their handles..... I didn't really like That... because the whole reason I started making knives is because I wanted Larger handles.....but, those words still stuck with me, and obviously I want to get better....so I tweaked this design. I shrunk it down. I think it's still very ergonomic, but svelte.
I think it will be great!

These are out of the New Procut steel. I'making 3-4. But I plan on adding to the batch when sending out to heat treating..... maybe more CD1 steel, or NitroV? I'm not sure yet.....I'm up for suggestions.

Handle material can be anything, except I don't like working with G10, and no carbon fiber.

At least one of these daggers is going to be maroon linen Micarta....that will look Classy.


Hit me up, I can tweak the length to what You need!

Thanks for the info. I look forward to seeing the next round you put on display. I get my wife, daughters, and son knives for Christmas and birthdays every year, so I can definitely see these as good stocking stuffers.
