More blades

Here are a few more knives and axes I've made. I just started using a gas forge after years of coal and have been having problems with my new forge. I'm hoping to get to where I can forge weld with it so I can start making axes again.

Wow!  Very nice work on all accounts!
I love the period look and materials, every piece is outstanding but I particularly like the fancy Hawk and the powder measures.

I love it! I'm really drawn to the period knives and hawks. Actually the whole time period is my favorite. Mountain man/rendezvous equipment is my favorite.
