He’s the “King of Pain”!

I wanted to make that joke, but I was too tired to think of a good way to do it.

Looks like jlauffer got my S.O.S.

Just got these in hand and everything I expected about the balance is proving correct. Once ground and handled, these are going to be amazing!

This is the last of the original dagger run next to its descendant.





These are going to have very nimble points.


Oh and Bonkerzillasaurus Rex is here too.

[David Mary]

Smells great in here right now, way nicer than micarta and G10.

 

[David Mary]

Now that I finally cleaned up the mess, this one will be a pair of 4 1/2” x 1” x 3/8” scales consisting of an inner layer of purple heart, a central layer of padauk and an outer layer of green/grey frog wood, which by the way is no longer available to anyone as the company has stopped all production.

 

[David Mary]

Knife making indecision? Then start small.

.06” 15N20 and will have a green and blue resin handle with black liners.

 

[David Mary]

Ooo it’s almost tomorrow

 

[David Mary]

Wait no, tomorrow is 24 hours away. Slippery tomorrow

 

[David Mary]

that could just be a sign I need sleep though
