Two damascus capers
« on: June 09, 2014, 10:43:00 AM »
Haven't posted in a while, been busy. Here's two capers I just finished. Blades are 3" and knives are 7 3/4" overall. Handles are ironwood and spalted hackberry.

Snazzy wood! Are those kit blades, or did you grind them yourself from barstock?

Thanks again. I ground them myself for bar stock. I really like the looks of ironwood. It's the first time I used hackberry.

Very consistent looking work   :thumbsup:   . I never make 2 the same, that's why I asked.

I think I got luck on these two and they came out pretty close:0)
