I just got these project knives in today. ( eBay sellers picture )

Not sure what I'll do with the bottom one because it's just a cheap Japanese import and I'm sceptical of it's quality.

The top is a Solingen cutlery, and the middle is a ubiquitous Imperial H6.

Here's what I did with the top knife.

Here's the imperial H6, it's still a work in progress but I'm really liking it so far.
I misplaced my other H6 a while back, but I think I'll probably like this one more anyways.

Nice work!

@Reaper AL sent me this self-designed Nicholas Nichols knife a couple of months ago, and I've been enjoying using it so much in the kitchen, I might take it along on my next camping trip

 

[Hickory n steel]

It didn't turn out too bad.
I couldn't find my epoxy, so I just peened the brass pins to secure the walnut scales.

Speaking of Green Rivers here's my rendition of one of their very large butcher knives. I call it The Competition Carver. I had two orders for one of these and both guys were competitive BBQers which is how I came up with the name. Shipped those two out and since I was making two thought I might as well make three.

Its 18 inches in overall length with a 12 inch blade. Steel is AEB-L stainless at 63RC, with a brass bolster, a cocobolo spacer and elk scales. I've received rave reviews back from the other two guys. For one it has become his most used kitchen knife not just a carver. He says he can slice tomatoes so thin with it that you can see through the slices. My wife, Nichole, test drove this one for a while and she loved it too and wants one in a matching box elder to match her santuko:

One of the things she really liked about this knife was being able to use it as a spatula too:

Heck of a pizza cutter too. I cleaned it up after we used it for a while and it'll go to our ranch cook, Brother Bill.

Horsewright : Dave, thanks for the “in hand” pics to really show how capable the carver is. Killer knives

 

[Cooter Brown]

You folks really like your steaks rare.

Ya bet and thanks!

Ya bet just burn em a little and call em good!

Did have a friend of many years that passed away a couple of years ago. We'd go to some restaurant and he'd order his steak "blue". The waitress/waiter would almost always ask what that was and I 'd tell em show it a match and call it good. He'd get his steak and I'd tell him; "Hawkeye, I've seen cows hurt worse than that get better." Those two ribeyes got a good searing, our own grassfed beef btw:

Yeah buddy, I've made one machete that was bigger. These three are the biggest knives outside of that machete I've ever made! Thats a cool one. Some similarity in design for sure.

I have a friend who was always saying stuff like that. "Just wave it over the grill." So when I actually, literally, showed it a match and waved it over the grill and put the raw steak on his plate he had to say, "Okay, maybe cook it a little, like sear the sides for a couple seconds."

Anyway...y'all have some nice fancy kitchen knives! Here's mine.

LOL! Funny story Dave (and great pics)

Thanks, this one is even bigger, use it in the garden rather than the kitchen, blade's a foot or so long!

Church knives for Easter!

The cleaner one is 12", the grubby one 11.25".
No, I guess I won't really take these into the office and offer to use them.

 

[VashHash]

I think this fits here. Just call it a bowie with a hanging hole

Old Hickory 14”, 10”, 7”

 

[tongueriver]

Great bullnose butchers. Are those dogs going to fetch some meat for you?

The size of the Schrade 165 really puts those lamb splitters into perspective!

The table is set for rabbit stew. If they don’t come through, it’ll be beans and wieners.

 

[tongueriver]

How embarrassing. That is what I just had. Gaaah! It's snowing. Again.
