I follow Jake pretty much on every platform but I have not heard much for quite sometime. That really does not answer my question though but thanks anyways.

Does anybody know what Jake Powing has been up to? Jake has been a huge inspiration for so many of us and wondering if any of you know what he has been up to ??

I have not posted in a while I have been busy. Anyways I made this blade for son who wanted something Japanese so I decided to do an East meets West blade with some cheeky pop culture thrown in. My boy is 6 and loves Pokemon so I made some wrought iron menuki poke balls. 1095 differentially heat treated blade 6"ish Wrought iron tsuba and kashira Copper seppa and fuchi which I attempted to chase a little.

Totally agree that is why I said it was a cheap one. I promised the woman that bought it a sheath because I felt it needed something but I already commuted to the price so I basically through it in for free.

Most definitely. Thanks
-
It feels great in the hand and something I will do in the future for sure.

This started out as a gift for my son but he wanted something more LOTR inspired which is cool. It is 304/1084 San mai with wrought iron fittings and a maple handle that I stiched a leather wrap around it and with an ode to Peter Johnsson I wrapped string around it wet to give it that look that is both functional and pretty damn cool looking. Overall is about 12-14" and the blade is some where around 8-9 " I promised the lady who wanted it for her husband a sheath so I made this little guy cheap and easy.

I was going to drill a hole so that the peen would be flush with the cap but I kind of thought it worked with the overall theme. There were a ton of things I wanted to do but had to restrain myself because I just wanted to achieve some things like the fit of the gaurd , cap and the overall flow of the knife. Thanks for the kind words appreciate it
