(Sold) For a while now, my dad (David) has also been making knives. He actually makes way more knives than me at this point. Here’s one that he made recently that we’ve still got on hand if anyone needs a last minute Christmas present. It’s 9.5” overall with a 4.75” blade made of ladder pattern Damascus steel and a dessert ironwood handle. This one also comes with a leather sheath that he also made. If you’re interested, just shoot me a message.

Finally finished this one after taking a long break. The blade is 128 layer ladder pattern damascus made from 1080 carbon steel and 15N20 nickel steel. The handle is made from Micarta and C-tek, which is a composite made from resin infiltrated aluminum honeycombs. It looks pretty cool and should hold up well.

Now that my new shop is finished, I can actually get back to making a few knives! Here’s another one of my clipped point hunting knives, this time with a 36 layer Damascus steel blade and desert ironwood handle. Cool side note: the steel for the blade was made by my dad who’s been picking up blacksmithing since he retired.

I don’t have as much time for making knives as I used to, so this one took forever. But i think it was worth it. It’s a 7” Bowie (12” overall) in 440C stainless with a stabilized maple handle. The handle gets some bonus points for coming from a tree out of my church’s cemetery.

This one is the third knife I've made for my wife, and the one that I am most proud of to date. The blade is made of CPM S35VN and the handle is Bronze, African Blackwood, and a bit of Ivory.

I forgot to post these a while back, so here they are. I was asked to restore a couple of firefighters' axes in commemoration of a local Fire Department's 60th anniversary. They were in pretty rough shape to begin with, but they still came out like new.

This one was a little different than what I usually make, but I really like how it turned out. I think the stonewashed f...

This one was a little different than what I usually make, but I really like how it turned out. I think the stonewashed finish looks nice with the bare antler.
