My first handles, curly maple and bloodwood
« on: November 26, 2021, 07:56:18 AM »
Setting up my shop for wood working so I can. Build bow. Saw these knife blanks at WoodCrafters and thought it would be good practice and make some decent Christmas gifts.  May have to make a forge and give the rest of this a try.  I made a forge for my son last year and he makes some knives along with other stuff.

This one is curly maple and bloodwood.  The next one gets brass pins.
