Hi guys,
Just got an adequate (not great, but adequate) camera, so I thought I'd share pictures of a couple I finished lately.
This a little patch knife. 1095 and cow bone. Brass pins.
About 4.5" OAL, 1 15/16" blade.
This is a little project I whipped up at Anvil Club from a spring that was laying around. Don't know the steel. Hickory handle, buttcap from a big screw, "guard" from a coffee can.
Kinda primitive, but a nice little fruit knife.
Six-and-an-eighth OAL, a hair over two inches of sharp edge.
You can't tell it, but they're both finished to 1200 grit!
Also both sharper'n heck. Real thin edges on them, that's the way I like it.
I'm don't think I'll try to sell them (unless these pictures really made your eyes sparkle for some reason- drop me an email at mscantrell at gmail.com), but someday soon, I would like to have this hobby put just a little money back in my pocket
Juuuuuuust thought I'd share... everybody loves pictures, and everything I know, I learned right here.:thumbup:
