Shokr,
very cool looking video. You stay safe over there our friend. The evening news showed footage of a make shift hospital on the ground to care for people wounded shot etc from these clashes of the Egyptian army and the protesters right under some palm trees and they said extremists where using all the trouble to burn churches and gov buildings.

You keep your head down over there and hopefully things will improve?

thanks Laurence

well the only thing that seems 'simple' is kydex, just waiting for the foam and i have all the other supplies i believe
 
I designed something remarkably similar. Great minds obviously think alike. I called mine the Tassie Devil though. Your knives are awesome though. You are officially on my list of people who's knives I will buy when I have a job.
 
they sure do, Liam!

LOL thanks a lot, i just hope its not a long list ;) and i hope you get a good job soon too! :D

Love the dagger . I really love the size of it . Beautiful handle and looks like a great grind as well. Nice job!
 
Thanks a lot guys

Much appreciated :)

I really enjoyed making this one, bit tricky but wasnt as hard as i have imagined :)
 
Shokr,
Very well executed dagger. I can tell you were going for the Taticool look.
If I may suggest? Do the next one all dressed up! Some muilti colored stabilized wood? or a layered Ivory micarta type handle? would make a buyer pick it right up!
 
Thanks Laurence, thats good suggestion, i'm starting to buy wood scales now and looking to step up the handle material

thanks a lot, George
 
Wicked looking dagger as it should be.
What size wheel did you use? Love the recasso.
Keep up the good work
Mark
 
Thanks Mark :)

I used the 10" to remove most of the steel, then switched to 3"

I really like the deep curve the 3" wheel leaves
