Nice EDC .....

Nice

Yes ....a litte swim in dilluted ferric...

Finished this yesterday ....Blade is 420 stainless and O1 laminate. Handle is brown canvas micarta and stainless corby bolts. Got to use my new stamp for the leather sheath and it turned out pretty nice ...,..

I actually use different sized ballbearing balls to flare the tube - they are smooth and do not scratch the tube

Very nice work .....

Blade is san mai 80crv2 and mild steel - micarta handle with stainless corbybolts - sheath has stainless fittings too. Blade made in 2011 ....one of the first large ones I made. Did not want to finish it at first due to a few small welding flaws ...but decided to anyway.

Yes ...it was made after assembly

5 inch hunter with handle of black, brown and tan linen micarta and brass. Blade is random pattern in 15n20 and 1095. Dangler sheath in halftanned leather.

I have made several blades with stainless cladding over carbon steel. The different stainless steel types give different results. I have used 316L, 304, A-ebl, 12c27, 416 and 1.4034 ( a 420 series steel ) The 420, and all the other knifesteel types all show carbon migration while almost none is found when using 316 stainless. A few examples shown - only one with 316 stainless ....2 pictures of the knife. I do not polish my knifeblades to a mirror polish ....theese blades were all hand finished to 800 grit except the 316 which was finished with a 400 belt finish.

As always very fine work...

I was born close to Illerup Ådal ...... . Ådal ( Adal ) is Danish for a valley created by erosion .....

Very fine work ...would like to try it too...

Very nice .....and a very well made blade ...

Wrought iron, pure nickel and high carbon steel some stabilized ebony and stabilized pear wood. Forged the blade over a year ago and I’m glad I finally found time to finish it.
