"fat betty"

Music - Joe Walsh, Confessor

This is my first stacked leather handle. With translucent tortoise shell spacers, and black cerakoted blade, she came out pretty. However, too much brass, and the epoxy soaked leather made the knife too handle heavy. This porker is tipping the scales at 1.4 lbs. making it impractical and earning her the name Fat Betty.

"Simple Bowie"

Music - Shine Down, Simple Man / Disturbed, Down with the sickness

This was my first attempt at a fuller. I stopped short of completing it before I ruined the entire blade. Lol. Turned out to be a functional blade though.

"Short Sword" Part 1

Music - Ryan Farish, All the colors

First canister steel on the new power hammer. The hammer drew the blade out so fast I almost missed getting any video.

"Short Sword" Part 2

Music - Ryan Farish, Spectrum

Etching the blade and putting a handle on it. Came out okay I suppose. It will K.E.A.L.

Cane KNIFE

Music - Van Halen, Everybody wants some

Found this cane in the middle of the road and thought I'd try putting a blade in it. When that worked I thought I'd try fractal burning the wood. Applying 3000 volts to saturated wood was a little unnerving, but it came out alright.

lITTLE cEASAR

Music - Moby, Flower

First damascus blade. First time etching. If I thought it was gonna work, I'd have video'd the whole thing. Came out alright though.

Zombie Chopper

Music - Beastie Boys, Sabotage

This beast was a blast to make. 5160 Steel never lets me down. The hole closest to the handle is the original center bolt hole in the leaf spring.

Knights Templar Dagger

Music - AC/DC, Long way to the top

Any professional bladesmith will tell you, a raindrop pattern damascus will require around 300 layers. Well, nobody told me. But in the days before the power hammer, I'd put too much work into this to throw it aside. Oh I got a pattern alright. Lol.
