      First Push Daggers

      Thanks guys !!! That was fun to build. I will probably make more now that I have the concept. Super-T, yes. I made the pins and also did all the stabilizing of the woods. I also helped in the heat treatment of the steels. Thank you for all the kind comments !! Troy

      Thanks Rhino !! The etching is really not my taste either but wanted to make something for show and accomplishment. I get most of my blades anywhere between rc56-59. I don't have an oven so consistency from the forge varies +/-. I do make a couple of coupons and have them tested at the local...

      Question for the pro blade makers

      +1 with Woobie. Some of these manufacture's use L6 steel and other's use 10__ steel. From what I have been told, there is no rule of thumb to these. Many of the lower end pieces use anything that is the cheapest that week. A few friends have made nice looking knives from these but never...

      My Lumber yard

      I appreciate the kind comments Jeffrey. I think I'm on the way to an addiction. I catch myself looking each day for new blocks that I don't already have. I have enough to make around 60 knives. And that doesn't include the Micarta, Mycarta, and acrylics scales I have. Whats funny to me is that I...
