    any failed wooden bolsters?

    Someone I respect stated that if used with liners and some type of pins/ bolts they are plenty tough. I guess "plenty tough" has to be evaluated by the individual maker? Haven't heard of a real use failure to date.

    Damascus & carved blackwood

    Trying An Arrowhead

    @Chris Railey, I hope not Chris, I have had very good luck with much thinner edges on kitchen cutlery. It may be a good idea to go ahead and heat treat before I take it any thinner though just to be safe. Not a lot left to remove post ht, just need to make sure I don't overheat it. I hope to get...

    Trying An Arrowhead

    I make my own arrows and ever since my first knife back around '07 I said I'd like to try an arrow head. I trad hunt so the more primitive (within reason, no reed arrows or flintnapping), the better. The first half dozen will be attached with silk thread wrapping as the ferrule will add more...
