Here is my knife of the day. A chef's knife to end all chef's knives.

Well, first let me show you what it looked like in the beginning...a power hacksaw blade (with tungsten carbide teeth), and a honey locust log.


And here is what it FINALLY looked like today. I'm embarrassed to tell you how long I've been working on this dang thing...or how much it cost me to make... The straighter part of the edge is tungsten carbide...didn't I tell you this was a chef's knife to end all chef's knives?

Default Day 18 Fred Rowe

Nice feather pattern Damascus Dagger by Ohio Maker Fred Rowe. I asked Fred to make a boot dagger for me; this is what he did for me! Well played by Fred.

Default Day 22, Day 23

Classic English Bowie; by Toshiaka Michinaka. Damascus Blade, Stag handle, leather and German Silver sheath. All in perfect proportion.




Did I say it was a miniature?
