    Scored some walnut flooring scraps, so had to make a couple more skinners. I realy wish I'd by some known steel and get far, far, away from mower blades! Maybe one day.... (when I have more money than mower blades). Well anyway, the blades 3/16 thick. The photos don't do the handles justice, the flooring scraps are beeeutious!

    Radical skinner there.

    You definitely have a style all your own.

    Nice work.

    Thanks guys!

    I got some tiller blades from my neighbor. He said he wasn't sure if I'd want them, being all bent the way they are. I told him "Sure, I got a forge!!!"

    These buggers spark like a file!!! I'll post more pics when it's completed.

    Well...not my best work, but I'm happy with the result, considering what it started as. Still need to heat treat, sharpen,and polish her up. The scales are from some mohogany door casing. They'll look much better sanded up and a coat or two of poly on then.

    Girl at work asked if I could make a knife with Harley Davidson on it for her boyfreind for his birthday. Nope, I replied, how about a skull on the pomel instead?

    I don't think this is ever going to be put to use as a real knife (at least I hope not) So I didn't heat treat or anything. Just profiled some bed rail, cut some Corion, ( I realy hate Corion) a little caving with the ol dremel, and whallar, a fighting knife with a skull pomell.
