here's a few i just finished. two were orders and the damascus huinter was just one i forged from a left over piece of a billet.
the mini-chete is just about 19'' o.a., and is forged from some W1 i got off the nj steel junkie.....thanks aldo
the hunter with the hammon if for a fella who wanted a knife made out of a file, the file was all surface ground prior to forging to prevent stress risors. the handle is desert iron wood burl, pins are nickle silver
the last one is a low layer forged hunter , some where around 50-60 layers of 15n20 and 1080. The handles are desert iron wood burl and it also is fully file worked, and has brass liners. i generally use nickle silver sheet when i put liners on like this cause i think brass almost is tacky...:barf: but i think they look good with the colors in the scales.
