2 new ones (resized pictures)
« on: April 18, 2010, 02:20:00 AM »
I just got and shot my first bow a couple weeks ago, so I'm new around here. But I have been making knives for a while. Here are a couple of my latest. The damascus blade is made from a bar that I got from Dan Seaver. It has an ironwood handle with a stainless guard and buffalo horn spacer. The other knife is made from 1080 steel with a brass guard ebony spacer and walnut handle.

Glad you re-sized the pictures so people can see them Jonathon. They deserve to be seen!  
 Guys, I don't know the specs, but I've held them and they are the perfect sized users. Mike

Either one would look good on my belt.
Nice work.

Very nicely done.
Fit and finish look impeccable.
I would be afraid to carry either one of them. They are works of art.
