Padauk slicer

Simple, long and thin.



Kind of like an X-Acto

   Here are three little ''desk knives'' I just pulled out of the oven. Full forged, only thing ground is the bevel.

Wharncliffe -older piece

 I made this Wharncliffe a good while ago, but never posted it. So I thought I would now. Black paper micarta bolster, birdseye maple main handle.


Tactical Tanto

Mean looking tactical Tanto. Handle is black and green canvas micarta. Pins are black phenolic, except the lanyard hole, which is nickel silver.

Small Buddy

Just a small little buddy. Stabilized mesquite handle.





Special Chef


Special hybrid Chef. Deba-like with funayuki influences. It is intended for vegetables, but will end up cutting most everything. One characteristic of this blade that makes it stand out, is the ''hamon'' a differential harden line, showing the grains of steel in different stages of crystalline structure. I look forward to doing more hamons. Handle is (octagonal shaped)  African blackwood with a paduk spacer.

Classy EDC in Ironwood


Here is a very classy EDC dressed in ironwood. It has a mosaic pin and some fancy spine filework to bring it up a notch.



Brutish EDC


Here is a cool little EDC in linen micarta. The faceted handle was quite a... fun challenge.
