Fred are those hole punches or scoops of some sort? Either way, free stuff is always nice.

They are leather punches and they are new. This was a big power plant that was being auctioned off. I talked to others who had purchased items and they said the same thing happened with them. When they left the plant, whatever was in the cabinets or drawers was just left and the company that ran the auction had no interest in going through the cabinets to see what was inside.

While they will work great for leather, chances are they were on hand to punch bolt holes in gasket materials. They are not cheap, very nice score!

I just recently finished this cleaver. .138 AEBL, black paper micarta with matte finish to match customers knife set, 416 ss pins. Scotch Brite belt finish. I really had fun with this build.

I only went about an inch up from the edge. I was gonna go higher but I didn't think Id like it as much and being AEBL I wanted to keep it thicker behind the cutting edge.

I always enjoy your kitchen knives Pablo. You seem to be living the life man.
Thanks I do enjoy making them and the customers keep asking for more: win-win

Josh,
Cool little three finger skinner, :thumbup: Years ago I use to make one almost the same profile out of 440C, They sold well, I just got into making more culinary knives. Nice Hamon on it.
