Really nice, love the overall lines and antler scales. Clint

Super nice! Very slick workmanship and nice skills. Clint

Love it. Nice work. Clint

Wow, another smoking blade, super clean and nicely done! Clint

Great forging! Clint

Those look great. Checkering really does add a classy aspect to a knife, wish I was adept at it also. Clint

That is one slick Chef’s knife, excellent work as usual. Clint

NIce work, like the thinner, flexible stabby one’s and this fits the bill. Nicely done. Clint

Thanks gents. The fullers for me were definitely are nerve racking to grind in, one slip and your likely going to be modifying whatever your original design was.....as this blade his so large and thick It seemed like a good candidate to give it a shot. Clint

Finished this today. 10.5 inch blade forged from a 7 layer billet of bandsaw blade, horseshoe rasp and center core of chainsaw bar that hardened nicely. Guard is a scrap of 300 layer, spacer blade material, and buttcap an endcut from a radial pattern billet I made forever ago. Handle African blackwood. Through tang construction with a nut welded underside the buttcap to squeeze it all together. Had to try fullers after seeing Jason Knight grind them into an apocalypse tanto in one of his recent youtube videos. Thanks for looking, Clint

That is a very choppy chopper right there. Nicely done. Clint

To state the obvious, those are spectacular knives, great work. I can certainly see some Hancock influence in the bowie. Very clean design and execution. Clint

Beautiful work Justin! Your hamons are very nice and i really like the lines on all of them. I am with the “loose the blue wrap” crowd though! Excellent stuff. Clint

Thanks for your positive comments. I really like Scagel style guards as well but had fitted the guards prior to deciding on handle type so couldn’t pull that off. Next project! Doug, Knife 2 with the crown antler has the copper spacers but they ended up blending with the stainless ones of same thickness right now. I expect them to stand out more with age and natural patina. The red on Knife 1 with fork antler is G10. Clint
