New Knife In The Works

Just Got the blade finished. The handle is next

Finished Knife!

Everything is done except a makers mark. Which I haven't figured out how im going to do it.

When you forging a blade it can be stamped but on stock removal thats difficult so it needs to be etched on by an electric etcher. 

Since I dont have an electro etcher ill have to figure something else out for now. I have an idea that im going to try soon.

Anyway, here is the finished blade.

Makers Mark Idea

My full initials in the Anglo Saxon language.

Handle on #1 in Progress

The wood is glued on and drying, will be shaped next.

Heat treating the #1 Camp Knife

Progress on Camp Knife #1

Been Working on #1 (for lack of a better name)

Filing in some grooves for better grip.

I believe this is called "jimping"

The new Grinding jig worked out very well.

Im at a bit of a stand still right now because I chucked my drill bit set out the door.
VERY poor quality, I broke all the smaller ones then the larger ones started snapping even under very light pressure.

It could be my drill press, the chuck has a nasty wobble.
