I had some Indian Damascus that I bought early on before I knew anything about it! Well after lots of don't use it for a knife! I decided to use it for some guards. Stuff looks good but again I don't think I would trust it for a Blade! What do you guys think?

Finally all done!! THANK GOD!! So guess what happens someone saw this knife and wants another one!! More Antlers in my future!! I learned a lot and will adjust the build accordingly!! Price too!! Happy for the business though!

I had the Maple handle pretty much made liked the figuring but wanted something a bit different. Decided to cut out the bottom of the handle and epoxy a piece of Mahogany in to make it different! Then I just sanded it down to match the Maple. I've been getting bored with the same ole stuff so...

I decided to stabilize the handle wanted a little bit of color. Belive it or not that is Blue! Couple more ideas I'm gonna try! Hopefully it will make my first Bowie a little different than the norm!

First, let me say I'm not a big fan of Bowie knives, but I feel like there a right of passage kinda like a Railroad Spike knife! So I've been working on my first Bowie style knife. Handle is shaped quite a bit, is made from Maple and Mahogany, Damascus guard and a 1084 forged blade. Still a ways...

For $300 it's a great deal! It looks like a Harbor Freight machine. New there 6-700 bucks. Not a fantastic machine but unless your doing Government work should do what you need to get done!

It's finally done!! LOL! Antler and Mother of Pearl came out better than expected! Pictures don't do it justice! Very happy with outcome!

I just started casting my own scales! I do it mainly for myself but do occasionally sell a few so I can buy more Resin!! LOL!!

Well coming along Mother of Pearl inlays done! I epoxied these in first cut very short SS pins and epoxied those into one of the scales. The MOP went in way easier than I thought it would! I used a Brad point kinda drill bit to countersink the pieces. Very happy how they came out and would...

The Elite is the Ken Onion with a small belt grinder attachment added to the package. You can swap out the standard KO attachment for the belt style.

So I bought a Work Sharp Elite sharpening system. I debated it but decided to go for it. I really like it so far. I took it upstairs and put it in the Kitchen and sharpened EVERYTHING!! LOL!! Only thing I'm regretting is not thinking about belt size it's 1x18 so obviously a strange size. There...

Yeah I agree. I have 4 or 5 billets left so I guess I'll just use them up. It's unfortunate I liked the billets and they were a decent price!

Anyone know if he is still in business?? I use to buy his DAM100 billets they were reasonably priced and made a nice knife! Matter of fact after he discontinued the DAM100 I contacted him and bought up his last few remaining billets! I still have a couple I didn't remember having (going thru...

Depending on the thickness you for sure can experience warping. I took a class with Jordan Lamothe and he told the class if your gonna make thin knives your gonna have to deal with warping. That in mind I deal with warping when it happens.

I'm sure you'll get some different recipes? Mine is as follows, I cut a bunch of blanks (6-10) at a time to maximize my dry-ice. Heat treat them all in my oven (after H/T i have all the blanks that i can grind if someone wants a fillet or paring knife), then put as many blades as I can on my...

Front and back polished, need to epoxy them on now. Have to get some Mother of Pearl fret dots to cover pins (customer request). Anyway a paring knife and a Trout n Bird knife all ready for epoxy too!

Welcome aboard!! Nice work, I need to try some folders!

Relatively flat, the liner will help with getting it there.

Making some progress! Much bigger challange than I expected! Antler was stabilized then Epoxied to some White liners. Rough fit right now! I'm friggin paranoid it's taken me it seems forever to get here!

I would get some of the Amazing Clear epoxy then you can color it in case you grind thru. This is the same stuff they use to make handles. I would get it at Michael's and look for a coupon too. Mix 50/50 put some heat to it to get rid of bubbles. Good to go! PS if you wanted to lighten it up...
