I thought this an appropriate place to give this information.
I have at least two collectors coming to see how their knives were designed, (and one of them taking me to dinner! ) as well as a huge number of makers.
I will be demoing "Take-Down Knife Design" at the 10th annual Mid-America Blade Smithing Symposium in Troy, Ohio next week.
I did a similar demo in Topeka, Kansas last year at the ABS Heartland Symposium.
I will show how these two knives were designed and will do a real-time pinning and assembly of the hunter.
Three days of fun in Ohio.
Stop by if you can.
The frame handled Fighter is built like a tank. San Mai blade and will get a hot blued steel guard and frame. Handle material not yet determined.
Hunter is Cru-Forge V, stainless steel guard and stabilized end-grain spalted Pecan.
