I finally got the old knife making machine to fire on most of the cylinders. Here's the latest two I have been working on. The smaller one has a 4" forged saw steel blade, iron fittings with a piece of deer or elk stag for the handle. Overall its just over 8". The larger knife is one I hand forged from a 7/8" X 2" cylindrical 52100 bearing. Anything larger out of 52100 I would not attempt to do by hand. The blade is just over 4 1/2" and it has wrought iron fittings with a piece of sambar stag as the handle. Overall its just over 9". Both have my two ply cowhide sheaths.
