Sherdog knife making thread

[usulrah]

Seems to be a few knife makers here so I thought maybe we should have a thread to post wips, finished works and tips and other shit @Protectandserve @Einar @Higus
Finally finished this one forged from sup9

P.s. Mods knives are not inherently weapons , this threads about the art of making them

Reminds me of the episodes of the Simpsons where homer watches a show on how to make your own ladder at home.

Awesome job! I love the aesthetics of the hammered scale texture with the dark wood handle and leather cord. The swage gives it a really mean look and the sheath is very nice. My only criticism is that the ricasso, especially near the front edge, looks a little rough from the angle shown.
Tell us about the construction. What type of materials did you use? What are the dimensions?

If I'm not mistaken it was the classic episode where he was boycotting church.

And he was vegging out on the sofa early Sunday morning and Marge is guilting him into going with the family.

Marge "are you sure you don't want too come to church with the family today"

TV "up next how to make your own ladder at home"

Homer "very sure"

Lol

The reason these get sent to F65 is because a lot of the responses(as shown) aren't great. Obviously thread traffic is dismal there but serious on topic discussion and appreciation will be had.


Anyway nice knife. Handle looks comfortable, nice angle on the handle and blade design.

Thanks man . Yeah I I had trouble with the plunge of the bevels, is that what your referring to?
Dimensions the blades about 9 inches long and bout a bit over 6 mm thick, I'll get back to ya on width

I buy them from the store if I need one because i have a fun life and making my own knife at home sounds beyond lame

Oh sorry have you ever made anything other than complaints?

I was referring to the area between the plunge and the handle.
