Kiridashi, Japanese style knife, 1084HC Steel, jarrah handles, brass pins and lanyard pin 🙂
my adventure learning how to make knives, photos of my knives, my journey and my offsider. please feel free to post and share your creations and ideas
The prices on the knives are not set in concrete, keen to discuss pricing and am into the barter system. good luck sitting on the outdoor chairs, The dog thinks he owns them all. The outdoor heating is the dogs heater apparently and any and all food consumed here has to be shared with the dog, he will make sure to let you know �

Few knives I have for sale 🙂
Not allowed to make noise before 9am on a Sunday, so it's a good time to cut out sheaths and prep them for stitching 🙂

Second sheath, stitching is a bit rough but still learning, nice tight fit. Still need to seal it. Tricky making the templates and allowing for the extra thick leather 🙂
3 handles glued, pinned and clamped, waiting for the glue to dry. 2 more sets of scales in the pressure chamber. 2 knives ready for handles, glue, pins and clamping hopefully tomorrow. That'll be 9 knives so far ready for the display. Bust my backside on Saturday and Sunday to get a few more sorted 🙂

3 knives fired and tempered today, started a sheath, 4 sets of scales sorted and 2 more in the pressure chamber, slowly getting stuff sorted for the display 🙂
Finally back in the shed, had a bit of time off due to being in a messed up headspace and other reason. But back to hand filing, got 2 knives on the go, trying to get a dozen sorted by early November, I love a challenge 👍

Little knife I made for a mate, he has his first kid on the way, the baby and Mrs normally get the gifts so I thought I'd make him something. High carbon steel, black G10 pins, sheoak burl with chameleon pigment 🙂
