    I really am envious. You do some nice work. I'm going to have to break down and try my hand at one.

    Default Now those are KNIVES!

    Beautiful knives Runs!

    What type of steel did you forge them from and how thick are the spines of the blades?
    Everything I have posted is pure fantasy. I have not done any of the things that I have claimed to have done in my posts. I actually live in Detroit.

    So are you like a bladesmith? Like is this just a hobby or do you sell your knives and stuff.

    Oh, I wasn't being snotty, just a little smarta&&ed. From the pictures I have seen, I would happily pay top dollar for one of RWB's knives.
