Teaching an old dog new tricks

[Kim Breed]

Hopefully I have this right. oosic and 5160 hunter and 1084 and quilted sepple. couldnt sleep so I made these.

Oosic and 5160 I really like :thumbup: . The other one I find the guard is extend to long.

Lookin' good, Kim. The oosik knife really looks great. I like the first one too, but I love the second one. It looks like a knife I would love to carry deerhunting. :thumbup:

 

[Dan Gray]

I kinda like both Kim.. should make for nice hunters..
are those scratchs on the first blade I see there

must have been the lack of sleep :foot:
2 knives how long didn't you sleep anyway

 

[Bruce Evans]

They both look like they would be serious duty hunting knives to me..

Very nice Kim. I really like the lines on the first one. The oosic looks great too.
Good job!

Good looking knives Kim. The oosik one is great.
The quilted one breaks one of my basic design rules.(strictly my opinion)
I like the handle to be as wide as the ricasso. there should be the illusion that the tang is nearly as wide as the ricasso, so the transition should be subtle.
Still, they are beauties.

On second thought, I hate ricassos on hunters. that is a GREAT loking knife!

What do you guys expect at 4am. wait untill I get some sleep. Just playing around with new digital camera and trying to post. I will show the non junkers at a later date. Thanks fo the comments :yawn:

Dang Kim, when I can't sleep I just put in Pink Flamingos and get a thorough dose of weird; does the trick every time. It's hard for me to imagine how incredibly productive you are, and it just makes me happy to think there are makers out there who can come up with stuff so fine in such apparently little time. To keep the world balanced and spinning smoothly, I am certainly the least productive maker anywhere...maybe I should give up cult movies and spend more time in the shop (or addressing the honey-do list). Thanks for providing a good example.

I too favor the oosic handled knife but they're both classic beauties. Thanks for sharing!

 

[blgoode]

good to see that you have pictures up buddy! Nice knives too
I like the bottom one best.....

 

[Dan Gray]

What do you guys expect at 4am. :yawn:

my point exactly,, I was kidding KIM

 

[B . Buxton]

nice job Kim, at 4 am I only dream about knives. I was wondering when is 4 am. anyway, and unless your R. Duncan or the milk man why aren't you in bed.
