Hi i'm new here :) Loveless drop point hunter and other works

[Edoardo Gallo]

Hello to everyone, I'm a newborn knifemaker, I live in Florence, Italy and i'm 20 years old. It's about one year that i make my knives, and about 3 months that i've bought a good grinder and a oven to make myself heat treatments.
I just registered in this forum so i can post some of my modest works and receive some opinion and good advices from the great knifemakers that are here on Bladeforums.

so less talk and more facts .. let's take a look at some photos

that's my latest work: a Loveless Style drop point hunter, the blade is Bohler n690co (60HRC), hollow grind, mirrow polish, tapered tang, and green hunter micarta scales with red spacers, and also Loveless style bolts.

And here a short video where i show and explain the steps of the making.

here some neck knives, kiridashi and a "tactical" version of a "Pattadese" an italian regional knife origianal of Sardinia

i'm sorry but the photos resized to 800x600 doesn't look like very good.

Absolutely gorgeous work, really like the Kiridashi as well. That polished hunter though in the beginning, WOW! Keep it up!
