Sweet looking knife. The sheath is really cool. Great job!

Nice work! What kind of saw blade? I'm not a knife maker rather a machinist. Metallurgy pikes my interest. I often go by my local heavy equipment repair shop and get medium, large and LARGE discarded bearing races for a knife maker friend of mine. Supposedly bearing races are awesome steel for forging knives.

Great looking blade there. That's a canvas mycarta (sp) handle right? Those look so cool! Nice.

The steel is most likely 1095. I can't be 100% certain on that. The handles are made from denim. Here's the saw blade the steel was cut from. It's a (was) 54" blade.

Cool. Neat work. Thanks for sharing. Keep it up for sure.

Crash that's a awesome job, excellent work. The cod fish skin reminds me of beaver tail.

No website. I'm just an analog guy living in a digital world.

Yeah, his 1's and 0's have to know their P's and Q's.

Really nice knife. I'm seeing a lot of finger boo-boo's in the pics. We like to see your work but, not at your expense.

The belt sander makes sure that I don't build up callouses on my knuckles. Scar tissue yes - callouses no.:innocent:

Another beautiful blade Crash. I really like the Cod fish on the sheath, something unique.

Wow, another beautiful blade!
