A couple new ones
« on: June 07, 2013, 08:59:00 AM »
Been a while since I have had time to play in the shop but my bear guides wanted knives so I pounded out these two for them.  The one has moose scales from a moose palm one of my guides gave me.

Doing well - thank you for asking Chuck.  

Just really busy with my "job" job which is not allowing me to play in the shop as much as I would like.  That and I have a couple really big projects I am working on.  I am building a sauna and the stove to heat it with and customizing a duel axle car hauler I picked up on trade to be the ultimate firewood and ATV hauler so my time at the shop has been mostly welding instead of pounding  :)

Thanks KSM - blades were roughly 1/16th or so at the spine near the handle tapering to the tip and edge with a continious bevel until final edge at 25 degrees.  Both are 15n20 and 1080 and around 50-60 layers.

Very nice knives, Bobby. I like the patterns and the blade shapes, although the nessmuk design is my favorite too.
