I've been making a lot of knives lately but haven't been posting them on this forum because I was afraid somebody would ask to buy them, and I wouldn't want to say 'no.' I was hoarding them because I was going to be a vendor at an archery tournament this past weekend and was afraid I wouldn't have enough to show. Now that's over, so I thought I'd have show-n-tell.
Here are some of the knives I made, some of which have found other homes.
These are all made of Damascus. I didn't want any of my Damascus to go to waste, so I kept making smaller and smaller knives until I ran out.
From left to right, the scales are made of cocobolo, cocobolo, curly maple, and elk antler with buffalo horn bolsters.
In this next picture, the two bigger knives on the left are made of 1080, and the two smaller knives on the right were made from a big circular saw blade that paintman gave me. They might be L6.
From left to right, the scales are spalted pecan, padauk, redwood, and walnut. Here are the sheaths.
Lastly, I made these two knives out of farriers rasps, which are probably 1095. I met a farrier on craigslist who sold me 33 rasps for $50, so I should be good on rasps for a while. :-)
