    Chef's knife - Hand Forged 52100

    Thanks for the compliments and for watching the video. I'm really glad you liked it! The aluminum rived is added to avoid the drill bit from wondering and lower the chance of me ruining the wood when drilling the whole. It helps but is not totally necessary. If you have the knife nicely clamped...

    Chef's knife - Hand Forged 52100

    I actually almost cut my foot off the other day. The belt snaped while I was shapenning another knife and it sliped off my hand and got stuck to a piece of wood right next to my foot! Oo I learnt my lesson! Only go into the shop with my boots now!

    Chef's knife - Hand Forged 52100

    Do it! You will not regret it! Definately a little harder than making a knife without it but if you keep the bolster and tang centered while forging it shouldn't be too much more work...

    Chef's knife - Hand Forged 52100

    Thanks a lot, John! I honestly didn't think the integral bolster would be so cool... but when I held the finished knife for the first time I knew that from that moment on knifemaking would start taking a little longer everytime! hahaha

    Chef's knife - Hand Forged 52100

    Hey guys! Was finally able to finish another knife and a video of the process! Didn't change my logo yet but I hope that now that I'm using electro etching and the definition is better, it will not be mistaken for something else... Let me know what you guys think, ideas and improvements for...

    440C Camp Knife

    OMG! I had no idea! The symbol is actually not a lightning bolt (it is supposed to be asymmetrical) . It is a part of my signature. After you guys pointed out about the logo, I've started thinking of something that would include the whole signature. Haven't decided on it yet but got a few...

    Thks Steve! You're not the first one to say that... I've been giving it some thought! But making a nice discrete logo is F# hard!

    440C Camp Knife

    Thanks, Paul! The scales are a resin and linen (coton) laminate that I made myself. It is hard to get G10 here in Brazil and Carbom fiber is just outrageously expensive!

    440C Camp Knife

    Hi guys! I've finished this knife quite a while back but never got around to edit the videos I took and post the photos here. I chose to go with 440C for a more maintenance friendly knife since I was going to be using it a lot. After using it for over a year, I'm very surprised and satisfied...
