Here are some pictures of a couple of Chuck's knives.The first is his first piece of Damascus that he forged in my shop,the second is a couple of small skinners that he ground from L-6 steel and handled with Cocobolo and added Brass guard-pin-and escussion plate.
He Doesn't think that they are worthy of posting as he thinks he is still to much of a begginer,HA-HA,He has been stockremoval for a few years now.
And for those guys that look at others shop and think they need all the fancy equipment,guess what ? These were ground on a 6 inch cone lock wheel powered by a washing machine motor, using scrap grinding belts that he salvages from a local factory and splits and cuts to length himself.He just bought a grizzly grinder for Christmas but hasn't set it up yet.His shop is basicaly all hand tools from there.
Lets please give him some kind words of encouragement here,Thanks.
