My son-in-law Steve has the knife making bug bad.
This is his first knife. Forged in an atlas forge and ground on the TW-90. He did 90% of all the work. I am really proud of him. He is a good listener, asks questions, and knows when to back away and reconside something. He has been forging up a storm at his new shop starting lots of blades and useful objects ( like tongs) to get his skills honed. He will be joining us here as a member soon. This Sunday we will start on a sheath. He even cracked a smile over this knife.
Blade - 1084
Handle - stabilized curly maple
Corby bolt fasteners
