What the hell is a pre-heattreat knife doing in the gallery you might wonder. Well, I've been thinking about this design for awhile and the day job relinquished its deathlike grip on me for a couple of hours today and...well, dammit, I'm just excited about this one :) 9" OAL, 5" blade, double ground and double edged D2...

Ferret,

Yowza...Nice...I like it!
I'm playing knife today, first time in a long time. I'll try to post a photo later this weekend of what I've been working on last night and this morning. You "may" note a similarity between your spike and my project. Erie. (actually it's the spy satellite). My grind is more conventional, though. I'll use scales, too. Looks like The Spike will have a bare steel handle?

Speaking of heat treat, I'm waiting for a certain folder blade to arrive back here. I also have to buy some materials. Financial crisis...this just went from hobby status to self-supporting hobby status. :rolleyes: Gotta sell some more knives!

HOT D*MN! Thats GREAT! :D:D :eek:!!

Wow, Ferret, I love that!

Makes what I did out in the shop today look downright pathetic! :)

Cant wait until my girlfriend gets home so I can show her this post... she'll go nuts! :D (Kinna (but not really) make me glad we
aint living togather, or she'd beg me for money. ;) not that I wouldnt give it to her, but I'd have to get to carry it once in awhile. hehe)

Very spiffy work, man, just too cool. :cool:
