    Hammers, Tools and even some knives to end a great March.

    Added some more Butcher Blocks in Orange Heart, Cocobolo and Purple heart woods. Early morning glimpse of the shop. It's been almost a year since I moved from the garage to the shop in the woods. The past year has been so crazy and I appreciate all the support from everyone who helps keep...

    Hammers, Tools and even some knives to end a great March.

    March is almost reached the end and what a crazy month it has been here in the shop. So many projects and working on getting them done. Hammers were made, several people coming through to check out the shop and even managed to get a few knives ground out. Some things may be changing here in the...

    A ton of forging going on. Hammers, tools and more from the shop!

    Steve's knife. It's no easy task to make a first knife, especially in under 8 hours. A lot of things have to go right the first time. I have been spending much more time on tooling. After reforging all of my own punches I decided to add more of them to the available list for other smiths...

    A ton of forging going on. Hammers, tools and more from the shop!

    What a busy past month it has been in the shop. Didn't really forget about the blog, but with all the projects and people coming through, it has been tough to keep this up. Hopefully I can get everyone caught up on the past few weeks on all the tools forged, classes and more here in the shop...

    Two more done and on to preparing for spring!

    The start of the year has been a mess of projects, mainly around the house, which has caused a shortage of shop time. Although some things are getting done, but not at the pace I'd like. The second of the F.H.C. prototypes is done and off already. Changed the sheath up, the open finger hole of...

To everyone who has bought a knife, took a class or just followed along, THANKS for your continued support. I accomplished quite a bit this past year. Even with a few bumps in...

    Bigger Knives and a Chewed Cap Mauler!

    After spending most of the week working on the run openers and such, it was time to work on some knives. I've got a pretty good pile of blanks started and decided I would work on the larger models in O1 to start. I cut two B.T.K. models for this one. I am going to do them separately...

    Koa Slicer, Harpoon GPK and some Skulls!

    So here we are again. This Gamez Patch Knife (G.P.K.) should find it's way into some Boltaron tomorrow and get a cutting edge. The knife that Jason Knight made to demonstrate the forging process during my recent visit that he left me to finish is coming along, but after a slip on the...

    Aaron and Chris found themselves in a conversation regarding full size and compact carry guns recently. We talked about the typical points of capacity, frame size, and ease of concealment, but when it came to velocity none of us had an answer. So, they took the chrony out to the range to see...

    More knives I've been working on.

    Not yet, still cutting them out one at a time with the band say and shaping them. Well the weekend has arrived. After getting some work done this morning and the afternoon closed in on the weekend, I headed into the shop and I managed to both 40 and 41 to 90%. Still waiting on my sheath...
