One Done and W'sIP

Well thank you gentalmen!

Rick, If he dosn't like it, yes, you can have it. (Like he's not gonna love it!)

Toby didn't like the fact I put a skull on a knife and hadn't made him a knife with a skull on it. So I took the handle off the squirrel sheath knife, and made him this.

Kinda creepy,, but COOL ! :)

kinda looks like its sayin "om nom nom". you guys make me jelous, got all that crafting skill, and i can barely keep my arrows together!!

Ted you have done it again all I can say is wow.

Before I opened the pic I thought it was cord wrapped. Very strong grain in the handle! My only concern would be not to use it as a chopper. Stress along the handle will run with the grain and might break it depending on the wood you used. Is it Oak? In any case, you did an outstanding job. It's beautiful work and you did great on the skull!

Thats cool and very creative.

I'm probly the only parent in the world that said "Really, thats great!", and ment it, when the kids walked in the room and said, "Dad, your going to kill us, we broke your bed!" LOL

I never would have said that though if not for Canids post on bed frames for knife steel. The kids owe you one bro. LOL!

The handels the same wood on skull knife. And yes Rick it's oak. At least 40 year old oak. It's from a 1x6 I found in an attic with 40 year old news papers on it.

This is another "free-be" for a guy at work.

Another great one Ted. Well done.

Blades bed rail. This stuff really makes some good blades. Need to do a little polishing on the blade. 3 1/4 in blade, 4 1/2 in handle.

kewl, I really really like the neo tribal look. I've been wanting to try some bed frame, have a bunch cut up and ready to start hammering.
what's the composition of bed frame? 1065? I wonder if it would make a good spring, probably not enough carbon.

More great work Ted.

Thanks randyt and Crash, don't know how much carbon, but it gets hard enough a file won't bite it!

great knives with lots of character!

Thanks Paracordist!

Here's another alittle bigger.
