James R.Fuller Posted July 12, 2014 Share Posted July 12, 2014 So I finally got started on my Kith dagger. Yay! It's a bit of a redesign from my original concept, but it is still basically the same. I got tired of filing and decided to take a break and post a pic. let me know what you guys think! -=JF=- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

James R.Fuller Posted October 26, 2014 Author Share Posted October 26, 2014 Finally finished! There are a LOT of tiny mistakes, but I am at least pleased with it. I am very inexperienced, and this is my first attempt at brass bolsters. Hope you like it. Give me your feed back! -=JF=- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

James R.Fuller Posted October 27, 2014 Author Share Posted October 27, 2014 It's ok. There are quite a few scratches in the bolsters I can't seem to be rid of... -=JF=- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GEzell Posted October 27, 2014 Share Posted October 27, 2014 I love it, it has a very aggressive shape. George Ezell, bladesmith" How much useful knowledge is lost by the scattered forms in which it is ushered to the world! How many solitary students spend half their lives in making discoveries which had been perfected a century before their time, for want of a condensed exhibition of what is known."Buffonview some of my work RelicForge on facebook Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevin hopkins Posted October 28, 2014 Share Posted October 28, 2014 You know, that has curves in all the right places The smith also sitteth by the anvil, And fighteth with the heat of the furnace, And noise of the hammer and the anvil is ever in his ears, And his eyes look still upon the pattern of the thing that he maketh, He setteth his mind to finish his work, And waitethto polish it perfectly. -Ecclesiasticus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Kruse-Kanyuck Posted November 3, 2014 Share Posted November 3, 2014 I'm falling in with one of the above words... "Wicked". May I ask what the handle is made from; I really like the striation in it. Pondered upon a rainy plateau, with a coal forge, and many dragon.

James R.Fuller Posted November 4, 2014 Author Share Posted November 4, 2014 It is curly maple, but it is not super figured. I treated it to some "bison brown" leather dye mixed into my tru oil. -=JF=- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Kruse-Kanyuck Posted November 14, 2014 Share Posted November 14, 2014 I was lucky enough to receive this fine-fitting beu this evening, and my; it sure does feel fantastic in the hand! Very well done, your pictures give no justice. Pondered upon a rainy plateau, with a coal forge, and many dragon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James R.Fuller Posted November 14, 2014 Author Share Posted November 14, 2014 Thank you very kindly, sir. I'm glad you appreciate it in all it's inexperienced craftsmanship... -=JF=- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Kruse-Kanyuck Posted November 16, 2014 Share Posted November 16, 2014 You're quite welcome, it really is a wicked piece. I decided on making a display for it, but that something simple that doesn't take attention away from the display's focus was needed. I came up with a Fire Stained plank of Blood Wood, and some forged steel twists, ten penny nail based. Pondered upon a rainy plateau, with a coal forge, and many dragon.
