The blanks are waterjet cut from 1/4" 4140. They are heat treated the same throughout. I've beaten the Hell out of them, and they've taken it admirably.

A couple of knives that went out into the world not too long back. Forged 80CrV2, approximately 6 1/2" blades, marine epoxy-impregnated paracord handles, Kydex sheaths. The usual from me. :) First up is a long drop point bushcraft knife that went to a bushcraft school owner. busa02 by James...

These are a couple of bush swords I forged at the same time that are kind of linked in my mind, though they went to different customers. The top one was ordered up by a fellow on an archery forum who was directed my way by a guy who uses blades extensively, who wanted an 18" blade. The bottom...

I'm honored to know that at least three of my tomahawks have been used by folks dealing with the recent hurricanes, two in the area hit by Harvey and one in the cleanup of Irma. This 15" Woodsman was used by my brother-in-law (not the guy pictured with it) as part of the Cajun Navy helping...

My donation piece this year for Knife Right's Ultimate Steel fundraiser: 13.5" blade forged from 80CrV2, marine epoxy-impregnated black-over-tan paracord handle wrap, black Kydex sheath. I'd rather sweat and feed mosquitos in my shop than wrestle with lawyers and politicians. Thanks, guys!

Finally doing a Blade Show after-report. It was the best knife show I've done, and it flew! I didn't get to get around to talk with more than a small handful of the folks I wanted to, and sold all but three pieces at the show. Those three were all claimed before I made it back home. It was...

I finished up the post-nuclear barbarian sword, so at least I won't have an empty table. :D For some reason it looks shorter in photos than it seems in person. Final weight is 3.25 pounds. A little weighty, but I had no trouble working it one-handed on the whetstone. Both edges shave...

Whole lot of wraps ready for epoxy.

Whole lot of wraps ready for epoxy.

Making progress. Got a mini-meat cleaver and a pair of o-tantos ready to epoxy the wraps.
