Hammered out a few more knives. Never had a Kukri, Always wanted one so I forged one out.:D
Ruffed it out a little on this POS i have. Almost better than nothing I guess:cool:

Stabber,
Great job forging those blades out, especially the Khukuris. From what I can see you have great hammer control. Bringing those curves out by hammer is not an easy task. Maybe you should do a WIP showing your raw material and the "final" rough forged piece. I'm sure lot's of folks would like to see your work, especially a KhuKri.
Thanks for showing your work.

Thanks McAhron!!

Hi Mike, I enjoyed doing the Kuk. The dagger I did before it kicked my Butt. The Kuk is my twelfth blade that I have forged. I can do a wip if someone in my family would be nice enough to take some pics. I will build another one and see what I can do on the wip pics. Thanks:thumbup:

I forgot to say, It is a bit bigger than I intended. I forget steel grows when you beat the snot out of it. She's near 20 inches!!
