    Who doesn't wanna see more knives...

    Finally got a few done or close enough for pics!haha The nut-cutter was done for a student of mine that works as a ranch hand (I'd never heard of one before), small black one for one of my basketball players for high school graduation, black one w finger grooves for an ex-player of mine graduating from marines in March, and the drop point hunter is for a local guy. This is my first batch to complete w my 2x72 grinder...wow, what a difference! Still got another 15 heat treated blades that I have to clean up and get handles on...basketball is almost over so I'll have a little more time!! Ready for SUMMER!!haha

            Nice Coach!

            Just got my kiln, waiting to offload some product for some extra cash. Picked up a 1.5hp Dayton motor for cheap today- I see a homemade 2x72 grinder in my future!

            I have two blades ready now in sheaths, five that are almost ready, along with several Buck 110 sheaths, and 3 blanks that are ready to start grinding.

            Note- NOT for sale!

              Sweet! What kinda kiln did u get? I'm debating between buying an evenheat oven or just keep sending them to Bos for heat treat...they do a great job, just hate having to make 20 at a time and then the wait for them to get back.

                  Nice work. Didn't you just recently start making knives? I remember reading one of your post of your first knife.

                    Thanks guys, and yes I have!! Those first knives im kind of embarrassed by now!haha Yes, I actually started a year ago...last spring break I decided to make my nephew a knife and it kinda snowballed from there...did my first 30 or so knives with a filing jig! I bought my grinder about 2 months ago, just haven't had much time to use it lately! Been out in the shop working on a few more knives all morning and gonna take my daughter to a valentine dance here in a bit! Can't beat it on this beautiful day!

                          I bought an old Cress kiln, nothing to speak of except the metal, brick and coils are good, front loader. I have a new pyrometer and gauge on order, next couple of months I'll convert it to a fully regulated digital oven.

                          Nice set of blades- that is a lot of sandpaper. Nice straw color on the temper.
