.....and a 14" bowie.:cool:
Here is a batch of blades I just got ready for the forge. The ones right under the bowie are my Lil' Skinner design, and all have been heavily textured on the flats and will be getting micarta and Jade G10. The little bushcrafter has a full convex grind and will likely be getting a nice cord wrapped handle. The dinky little stub tangs on the bottom are going to a customer who makes primitive style neck knives, and will be hafted in bone. I'm still not sure what the bowie will be getting for the handle, micarta, or some nice wood......what do you think?
P.S. these are the first batch to have my mark cold stamped, with my newly built press, so much cleaner looking!

Nice work. The maker's mark looks great - what are you using for a press?. Thanks for posting.
 
It is a pretty simple, bottle jack type press. I will get some pics later and put them up.
