No. 37 is finally finished.
Fin.
Another one begins...
So back when someone asked me for an wharncliffe type knife I wasn't sure how to tackle it......
The weekend has begun!
Well this is probably the largest gather of my work that has been on one place at one time ever. Mainly I've been building them in recent weeks to ensure the new website has content for those who are not on the forums or facebook. Also this is allowing me to run out my current stock of materials. Hopefully UPS and Fedex come though and I can finish these in the coming week.
Heading into the weekend...
Tomorrow is Friday and in hopes of getting some stuff done this weekend, I made sure to get into the shop and get some work done. I've not worked 3 of the same model at one time, but I can see the benefit. Less fiddling with tools and more just making great progress. No. 39 is the ready for a sheath and then a sharpening. I was able to get the scales shaped and epoxied. This walnut had me a bit disappointed at first. The grain just wasn't really popping to me.
39-40 Progress, BBQ and some Hot Peppers!
No's 39-41 getting the rough bevels done.
