Man that’s clean. Can’t wait to see it finished. Is it a commissioned piece?
no, no commission - just something that isn't in my inventory, its similar to one that has been sold recently and wanted to make another one similar ~ here is an idea of them when completed ~ sold this one several weeks ago ~ this new one being made has more of a drop in its nose ~ Suttle differences, when making knives ~ give me something to do ~ used to make bird houses ~ and shelves ~ too ~
- may start doing some wood carving soon ~ get some bass wood from Michaels and carve a few bears and maybe some characters ~seems to be something that could be very enjoyable ~ 
That’s a deep makers mark…care to elaborate on how you get it so deep?no, no commission - just something that isn't in my inventory, its similar to one that has been sold recently and wanted to make another one similar ~ here is an idea of them when completed ~ sold this one several weeks ago ~ this new one being made has more of a drop in its nose ~ Suttle differences, when making knives ~ give me something to do ~ used to make bird houses ~ and shelves ~ too ~

“Yep — nothing more to it than that.” smack it a couple more times than most people ~ just make sure your stock is much thicker than your ~ depth ~ important note ~ "do not smack it cold" ~ throw it back in the fire between every strike ~ clean using wire brush every cycle too ~ you do not want scale inside your stamping zone it can ruin the quality of your mark ~
, so I am on the gas run while the oven heats up!
