Your friend ought to be happy with that one. Nice looking knife. SDS

It's very possible that there are several makers who have built knives like that first one. There used to be a maker from MO by the name of Ken Richardson who built knives like that. I think his knives can still be found on that very popular online auction site. The sheath looks just like the...

Very nice knife. The Dillon ad doesn't hurt the picture either. What are the handle and guard made of? That looks like a really handy knife to have at your side. SDS

Looks like you have good taste in the factory stuff. SDS

I'd bet that thing is quick in the hand. Very nice. SDS

Welcome to Knifedogs. Sorry to hear about the lost knife. That stinks. If you have any pictures of your other projects I'd love to see those. The spear tips sound particularly interesting. SDS

You might look around to see if there are any saddle makers in your area. They may be willing to sell you their cutoffs. There is a local holster maker here in town that sells their leftover leather by the pound and you get to pick through it. Good luck, SDS

I just keep thinking "wow". Very impressive work indeed. Thank you very much for taking the time to share the process with us. SDS

Very interesting. I love seeing different handle materials and I definitely think this qualifies as "different". Neat, SDS

Welcome aboard. SDS

It's not just paper wheels, all of them evil machines in the shop are possessed by demons waiting to get us all! Seriously though, glad your okay. Seems like it's always that one last little "thing" that gets us. Be careful around all of the spinning/turning machines in the shop. SDS...

Welcome aboard. We are getting quite a group here in Oklahoma. I'm from out near Piedmont. SDS

That's as much 3-d sculpture/art as it is a knife. You don't see many any nicer than that. SDS

I managed a good deal off of Craigslist. If you can save money and wait, a lot of times the deals will show up. The key for me has been to make sure I have the cash available and that I'm patient. When I get in a rush I tend to get stuff I wish I hadn't. SDS

I may be way off but I think I've seen balls like that before. If it is like what I've seen it is a firm rubber ball filled with a liquid of some sort. When you spin the ball the liquid inside spins but you can stop the "shell". It gives the ball a sort of centrifugal balance. No doubt...

You got "skilzzzz". Nicely done. SDS

Very neat little knives. I really like the beads with stingray skin too. SDS

I don't keep band aids in my shop. Usually the cuts/injuries I get are too much for band aids anyway. Today I ran my left thumb into my band saw. Felt great. I wadded up some paper towel and then used electrical tape to hold it in place. Once I get the bleeding stopped, if it isn't too bad...

I've had that problem with my lighter weight (higher grit) belts. I'm pretty sure it has to do with the humidity. I hang mine on rods on the wall and as long as I keep several of them hanging together they seem to do okay. When I get down to one or two the problem can get worse. I have...

Another question for you to keep the thread alive: Why do they call it a driveway when you park on it and a parkway when you drive on it? SDS
