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 :)

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 :)
