Thanks Anthony, I agree that the angles didn't work in practice and would look better if I kept a simple radius. This was made from 1/8" 1084 and the scales are teak...this is the first knife to come off my kmg grinder. Ground to 100 grit then finished with a scotch bright belt.

Any constructive criticism? Pretty quiet out there :)

Here is my 3rd hot off the press...

reminds me of SOG's Recon Bowie...love it

...I never will either! thanks for the tips guys :)

Great execution, beautifully done

That's a sweet little beast

:-O

Thank you all very much...I'll be belt shopping on Monday, and hopefully get my shop into working order by next weekend!

What's up dogs? Kidding, but seriously, I just got a kmg 3speed grinder with flat platen, 10" wheel and 5/8" small wheel...my question to you is what grits/belts would you deem without a doubt necessary for making blades out of 1/8"-3/16" 1084? thanks in advance, bcb

Outstanding work, I dig. bcb

hey guys, tried the search but it just confused me further...so i guess ill ask outright... i am getting a coote 2X72 and was looking for recommendations on motor choices and how to best control speed and get it all hooked up thanks in advance!

very nice...i really like the lines on the "skinner"

the lines you see running lengthwise are just streaks of oil on the blade, all of my lines are running the same way :)

hey everybody! number two hot off the press, pretty excited about it. let me know what you guys think...1/8" 1084, 8" OAL, 4" blade, natural canvas micarta scales ...
