Shop update

[Fiddleback]

I have knives finished from the runs!!

KBT!! - Your Woodsman is done my friend. I put pics up last week. I'll post some more today!

CMR3137 - Your Hunter is sweet bro, and the woods you chose, Osage over Walnut are meant to be paired!

Also finished is Gearman79 from Rammy's Runt (Bocote/Blackwood), the Rammy Contest Runt (curly Koa, Iornwood burl, Osage and EIRW), and an unspoken for Ladyfinger wearing Osage!!

I'm also starting a new project that I think is sweet! Pics and details soon. Here is a teaser. This is me forging some wrought iron flat to use as bolsters!!

And one more pic of my Ramanon dot com contest knecker!

Love the runts and the little necker. Your shop is looking great:thumbup:

Can you make a runt in 1/8" with some of that striped stabillized maple??

Dude, why you wearing that mask while forging?

Thanks for the pics!

Yes. I now take orders. If you want to order such a knife, start a thread. I will take orders based on whether or not the project suits my skills and interests. This is a good one. Stabalized wood is an upcharge though.

I always wear a mask in the shop. My sinuses and lungs are weak, and can't take any dust. Forging wasn't the only thing going on that day. I basically just spent a few minutes flattening that stick of WI.

not sure if that's a yes or a no

I think Andy is saying that he is now taking orders if they suit him and that your request is suitable. Simply start a new thread with what you want and Andy will likely use it to show progress pictures and keep you updated.

Sorry if I'm putting words in your mouth Andy:foot:

Exactly. For example. On another forum a person asked if I could do a Bow Legged Chopper with ivory handles, mirror polished and blued. If someone was to start a thread that asked for such a knife, I'd kindly decline. I wouldn't even know how to quote a hand rubbed mirror finish (I don't use buffers at all) on a knife like that. But the quote would be prohibitive.

great work Andy.. i love em all... especially that Runt and necker...

Thanks Mike!! Tell Al, his knife is done!

Al has a great one coming too!
