sail it!

It might be for sail soon.......

Already is! FB don't lie!

This thread inspired me to sail it!

$100 if anyone wants it.

Some more work to share....

First is a filet knife that was sold to a friend of mine, to be a gift to his brother in law. It is a panfish/trout filet knife, sharp on the swage of the knife as well (top of spine at tip)..... Scales are Desert Ironwood, with a mosaic pin thrown in for looks. This wood is gorgeous.....

Next is an oyster knife done in Figured Maple, with mosaic pins. This was sold to another friend, as a gift for his best man in his wedding coming up very soon. I am also doing more basic knives for all of his groomsmen....

And my new favorite. This is an oyster knife done in Stabilized Spalted Maple Burl, with black G10 liners (piece between scales and blade), with 6 stainless pins. This wood is exquisite (read: expensive) and was done for a friend of mine as a gift for his wife for their anniversary. He wanted a "camo" look but done in wood.....this fit the bill quite well.

Next are some revolver grips that were brought to me by a friend. He was restoring an old top-break revolver for his father in law, and he broke one of the already rusted and bad looking grips in half. So I epoxied it back together, removed most of the rust, and polished them back up. The grips are made of a resin, so the rust was actually IN the material. Couldn't get it all out.

This is how they came to me:

"Otter Skinner" with Cocobolo and brass pins, done for a friend. The woodland camo paracord lanyard matches pretty well, his request, but not my favorite.

I'm glad you keep posting, I really enjoy looking at these. One of these days I would like to see what I can try to throw together. Keep of the nice work!

Thanks man, more to come. Some crazy exotic woods coming in, lots to do for Father's Day, so little time.

Can't post pics until after Father's Day though, already got someone busted on their gift....whoops!

Knife guys, do you know where a solid brass blade about 8" could be found? I need something non ferrous and not ceramic. Thanks

Not sure the intent of this, but a brass blade will be horrible for edge retention.

A quick google search turns up nothing......

^^ Titanium. Not cheap though.

I didnt think about titanium being non ferrous but i dont think that would be an option for us. I was trying to find something brass or copper to cut hot plastic extrusion and not damage our extrusion tips like a stainless blade will do over time. As far as edge retention its like cutting butter so thats not a big concern. I may look into some sort of aluminum blade also.
