My current knives in the works!! Throwing Knife and a Kitchen Knife!!

in blacksmith •  7 years ago  (edited)

Both of these knives are personal knives. I'm making these for myself. The first, a throwing knife made from 5160 spring steel, Forged out, but ground down and drilled out to ensure proper weight. The second is a new kitchen chopper for me. I'm tired of these cheap knives that dull to quickly.. So I'm making one myself, Finally! This is a piece of a bandsaw blade, 15n20, already hardened and tempered, so it was my first stock removal knife.. 1.5mm thick, blue dyed curly maple scales, it'll be set with 2 mosaic pins and a stainless tube. It will be a gorgeous knife when I'm done!20180417_110909.jpg20180417_110921.jpg20180417_110934.jpg20180419_095648.jpg

Oh, a fellow knifemaker - welcome to the Steemit.
Looking forward to seeing more of your work

Thank you sir, I'll be checking out yours as well. I'm mainly a fabricator, I build Forges for blacksmithing or knife making, even foundries for melting metals. I made knives when I can. Currently taking a break from knives and building a power hammer to make my Damascus billets easier to hammer out. Yay!
