Photo from 21-Feb-2020. Complete! Handle finished in tung oil, then, shellac, then lacquer. Really makes the figure pop. Blade bevels were left as they came out of quench. I'm digging the contrasts. What do y'inz think? ;

Photo taken 10-Feb-2020. Getting real close to finished. I've sanded all the details I want to be shiny on the blade, glued up the handle & pins, & did all the shaping & sanding. What do you think? All's that's left is finishing on the wood & sharpening.… https://t.co/JxsJaLcFVM

Photo taken 6-Feb-2020. Having a glue up with my buddy Lenny. Going with a hidden tang construction in a laminated maple handle. Simplifies handle fit up massively. What do y'inz think?

Photo from 24-Jan-2020. Per the Goddard "$50 Knife Shop" method, I made me a lil' one-brick forge! This lil' forge can chooch, too: 10 minutes after firing it up at about 1/2 throttle, the non-contact thermometer was pegged out. Just using this for heat … https://t.co/7n508sWJoq

Photo taken 12-Jan-2020. Decided that it was time to make a knife. Finally.
Material: O-1 tool steel
Thickness: 0.125"
Blade is roughed out, profile ground, & I've started dropping in some bevels at this point. There is a reason I'd embarked on this proc… https://t.co/DlEy4TaVmm

Lost my card holder. Has a short length of pink-n-blue paracord with a copper bead attached. This is an outside chance, but figured I'd try.
