Thanks Roc. It was good to meet you and chat a bit at Blade. Robert

Here is one for ya. CPM 154 CM - Heat Treat by Bos to 60 Rc Stabilized Spalted Maple Scales Stainless Bolts OAL - 7" Blade Tip to Handle - 3 1/8" WITHDRAWN - - I think I will make this on my EDC Robert

I don't like wearing anything around my neck. Maybe in a previous life I was hanged for Bank Robbery, or Cattle Rustling:D Anyway, I have had a few requests for "Neckers", and here are two that, even though small, resemble my full sized knives quite a bit. 1095 Steel - 400 Belt Finish...

Give out a shout sometimes and ride on up to Oxford. We can spend the day talking knives and maybe pound some steel or grind something. Robert

Looks pretty good there Hoss. Where per-zactly in Alabama are you? Robert

Paul, For some reason, I just noticed that I had your message. Yes, I will be at Blade, but I won't have a table. I'll stop by to see you...... Robert

Thanks Kevin. I'll stop by to see you at Blade next week. Robert

Sort of like trying to figure the best car to drive to Wally-World. As long as we get to where we are trying to go, it doesn't really matter what we drive. I regret my post, as I usually don't offer much, if any, advice on heat treat (or not much of anything else). Does mineral oil work...

Jerry, Using 1084 and water is like trying to beat a train at a crossing. You might make it and you might not. If you can't get yourself some Parks 50, go to your local Co-Op and get yourself a couple of gallons of Vet-grade mineral oil (the stuff they give to horses to make them...

Well Sir, I thank you for that very kind compliment. Perhaps our paths will cross soon and we can share techniques, war stories, or just whatever comes up. Thanks again, Robert

I appreciate the kind comments gang. I had fun making this one (even though it was a little more work than I anticipated), however, I just hope that Rick likes it when he actually gets his hands on it. Photos can be deceiving you know. Just ask anyone who has ordered a "Mail-Order-Bride":D...

Bruce, I usually don't say too many "dirty" words, but "doggone" if that ain't the prettiest thing I have seen in a while. I think I will just quit trying to make knives and mark it off to a life's experience. After seeing this, there just ain't no way I can ever even come close...

Here is one I just finished for a customer across the big pond. Forged 1084 416 Stainless Furniture Ironwood OAL - 15" Blade Tip to Guard - 10 3/8" Robert

Looks great Frank. What kind of finish is on the walnut? Good looking sheath too. Keep up the good work. Robert

Do you talk "funny" from breathing that stuff, and do you "float" around at work? :D Welcome my friend, Robert

Thanks guys. Mr. Moran had a style all his own. Some I really liked, and some I didn't. Now if I could just develop "My Style"....... Oh well, back to the drawing board. Thanks again for the kind comments, Robert

I was only there for part of Friday. I'm sure we probably crossed paths and didn't realize it. Maybe next time......... Robert

Rex, It was good meeting you, however, we didn't have a chance to talk very much for some reason. The "Pup" will, no doubt, grow up to be a salesman. He was "Hangin'-in-like-Gunga-Din". You have him on the right track. Maybe we can get together again sometimes. You are always welcome...

Murphda, I was only able to attend a short time on Friday. Were you the guy talkin' to Rex about something you had for sale/trade, but had something else at home that might be better? The guy I am thinking about had on a gray U.S. Air Force t-shirt. Robert
