A few knives
«

Here are a few knives I have been working on. Most have been blanks I have purchased online. The stone knife with antler is from a knapped stone I was given by stringstretcher when visiting VA this past summer. The one with the bear claw in the handle is for a friend. He gave me several claws in exchange for me putting one in a knife for him. I used Glaze coat from Lowes to inlay in the handle.
I still have some final polishing and clean up to do on them. The last two are the first one I cut out from some 1095 carbon steel barstock. Gonna heat them in the kiln brick forge from Jeremy and put some canary wood or birdseye maple on them.
Hope you like them.

Thanks Ken. I really like them too. That style they call the Patrick Henry, from what I have read similiar design to those used during the Revolutionary War. I think its a sleek looking knive. Just have to get busy making some sheaths.
