Recurved Granadillo

A little knife for fun. Blade is highly polished 1084 with a natural hamon. Handle is birdseye granadillo.





Surgical Fighter

This was a knife I made to take to Blade with me... It has a 51200 blade, nice thin edge geometry, contoured handle, and all that fun stuff. A sheath as well.








Razor

Here's another commision. A straight razor! I tried this guy out before sending it off and it worked really well. It also has a nice little storage case.

Horsman's knife


I had a really great time figuring out the design for, as well as making this knife. It's my new horsman's style EDC. Made specifically for people who work with horses, this knife is classy for show, but at the same time lightweight and simple for easy carry and constant use.

Kukri!

This is a big first for me. It's my first large knife intended for combat and very hard use. I payed special attention to geometry on this one. The spine is 5/32''. I carefully tailored the grind for very fast, deft strokes. It can cut through most brush you encounter in one quick swoop. Stabilized amboyna burl handle, nickel silver bolster polished to a shiny 2500 grit. 1084 blade steel





Tanto... kind of

EDC kind of knife, again, we have a hamon. I was really happy about the sheath with for this one.







Seaxy thing

This is a seax inspired knife with a hamon. Seaxs were a traditional, very old germanic fighting knife, the straight edge slashes very well, and the tip design concentrates all the power right on the point, near the cutting edge, making it lethal for piercing. I threw the hamon in just to mix things up, german fighting knife, Japanese blade hardening technique.

Standard Bushcraft Knife... Sort of

Here's a fun little one. It's basically a bushcrafter with some slight additions and tweaks in the design.

Canada bushcrafter

Cold weather all purpose knife. A bushcrafter. Handle is ironwood, stabilized box alder and black micarta. Blade is 1084 with intentional forge finish. Sheath is a cross draw. I am really starting to like these.
