[ironarmknives]

my newest billet ,its 1/4" thick,1 1/2" wide and 12" long, started with 23 layers of 1095,15n20 ,this is a basket weave pat. I think LOL at least that what i wanted . i've had a blank on knife styles as of the last few months with all darci's softball going on. but now we only have three day a week of softball so i can start working on knives again ,at least for a month then basketball starts and it back to 6 days a week sports. so ok what kind of knife should i make out of this billet .just wanted to say hi and show i have not fell off the earth.

well the billet is gone, i traded it for a fighter made by cook custom knives out of AZ. I have seen his work at our gun show in san diego for years .
www.cookcustomknives.com and said to myself he needs one of my billets .
i could of sold it for 200.00 if i was lucky so a trade for a 420.00 fighter was ok with me .i'll put it in my bug out pack .but i got him a billet just maybe he'll want more. ok so back out to the shop to make another ,work is slowing down again so time to make more knives ,lol
