A look at some of the forged work I plan to have on my table in Atlanta. Still need to do tactical tomahawks and mid-tech fixed blades, too.

One more month. Better get a wiggle on...

Thanks Daniel. I'm going to get me one of those pads and see what happens.

I would've chimed in earlier but was in the wilderness all weekend Daniel is correct.
Let me know if you have any other questions about the satin finish.


cheers,

Playing around with tumbling for the first time among other things this week. So far our tests seem promising. What do guys you think?

 

[Salolan]

Finally put my newly built etcher to use!

Now to taper the tangs on the 10 full tang blades and start putting on handles.

Am I correct in *ass*uming those primary bevels were milled? But I'm even more impressed with your work on the handle. It definitely gives a 'used, but not worn' look to the dagger.

 

[Nathan the Machinist]

Am I correct in *ass*uming those primary bevels were milled?

Yes, they're milled.

BEHOLD! THE MILLED AND TUMBLED BEVELS! *evil laughter*

(the scales and pins are just temporary)

...it's still a work in progress...

 

[Lo/Rez]

It's a very nice work in progress. Someone will definitely be thrilled to own that.

No kidding! AHHHHHHH!!!!!

Rick - You gonna be bringing around any sharp-and-pointies, or just gonna be a spectator? Just refrain from being an expectorator.

Dang, why am I up this late? I needs me sleep!

I guess I never posted finished pics of that blade I was working on a couple pages back. Here's a few:

I am going to go ahead and say that I think I need that.... How long is it?
