Haven't been here for a while. It was a busy time for me, also that I am making a college degree. This is what I have made since January - you can see the progress
1. Bushcraft knife forged out of an old file. Handle is brass leather and oak. This was supposed to be a cheap knife
2. Antler hunter twins. Stainless steel, 11,5 cm long, brass, leather, merbau and antler on the handles. One of them got the end of the antler cut and serves in the field, while other lays on the shelf
3. Chefs knife. Same stainless as before, 34cm long overall, 2,5 mm thick. Acacia wood on the handle
4. XVII century camp knife. 26 cm overall, 3 cm wide and 3mm thick. Oaken handle
5. Antler bowie (or Arkansas toothpick). The blade is 22,5cm long, sharp both sides, 4,5mm on the spine. Etched in ferric chloride. With ornamented sheath
6. Frontier bowie blade - Forged sharp, 47 cm long, 5,5cm wide, 4,5mm thick.
7. Etnographic kitchen set. Chefs knife and fillet knife with Kashubian ornaments on sheath. Acacia on handles
8. Kindjal. A killer blade 46,5 cm long, bog oak handle with silver decorations. Fullers were forged.
9. Simple scandi knife. 12 cm long blade, 11,5 long dyed oak handle, sheath wet formed around the knife.
10. Small damascus blade. Damascus made by me, handle is palisander. Blade 10 cm, handle 11,5.
11. The Red Baron - bushcraft knife with skull crusher on the back. 30 cm long, 4 mm thick. Acacia wood on handle.
12. Refurbishing an old knife. Changed the handle profile, polished and slightly re-grinded the blade, sharpened. Made a matching sheath
Before
After
13. Modern Viking axe. Too narrow eye, but not bad for the first time. Ash tree handle
14. Runic knife: 15 cm long blade with Elder Futhark runes on it, 11,5 long oaken handle. Sheath with wolfs paw ornament, wet formed around the knife.
15. Friction folder. 10 cm long blade, handle is oak burl.
These are the more interesting knives I made, not all of them. Been making forged fire strikers, belt buckles, forks, forged crosses, fibules, etc. Hope you like it
