Do I remember correctly that you made that elegant fixed blade?


Yes. It was my first attempt at a hidden tang, and first use of my gas forge to heat treat.


First wood core sheath as well.


I do uave to say, I completely flubbed the end cap. I had used a punch to move the steel arround the through tang I was penning, and I put it on upside down with the punch marks showing. Did it late at night and did not notice until the morning when I was peining the tang. Learned some things to apply to my next knives.
