great work :bigtu: the last knife tell me about the finish on the blade is the handle fiber glass??

 

[e.martin]

you posted before I finished adding pics the colored blades are coated with duracoat a firearm finish really great stuff and so easy to do. The handle is burlap "micarta" homemade its burlap layers with fiberglass resin and put in a press it makes a super hard almost bullet proof material

Great talent you have there!! They really look good!!

 

[Beladran]

lol i looked back and was like o crap more pictures. the 6th picture down the coloring in the blade almost looks like its case hardened but then again it looks like a damascus steel? I love your work

 

[e.martin]

it is damascus cable damascus the color was the sun playing tricks with the camera

 

[Beladran]

ok woo my head was about to explode trying to figure out how you were able to case harden a damascus blade and still retain the damascus pattern

 

[e.martin]

oh and that handle is lion's bone

 

[Beladran]

did you kill the lion?

 

[e.martin]

no someone gave it to me along with a giraffe bone he had a friend send him some from africa

[msredneck]

Great Stuff...what talent

 

[Atomsk]

amazing work. the 2nd and 4th ones are my favorites

 

[ol bumpy]

Great job on those....I really like them. You have a talent for your craft.

I'm a wood guy, and like those handles....The Osage, Bocote, and Cocobola all stood out. Nice work.

Is the handle in the next to last photo Wenge?

 

[msredneck]

How do they cut?...... :feedback:

 

[Rbelote]

Those are nice knives. Do you sell any or just make them for friends?

 

[e.martin]

ol bumpy that was black palm, msred (great talking to you tonight) these are some over a year, some have been gone, some are waiting on a customer is singapore, how do they cut? great never had any complaints. Rbelote I do sell them. thanks everyone for your kind post

 

[msredneck]

Just got to ask....On the pic's I'm seeing many of the knifes are a shot of the handle more than the blade.

Not a complaint but:
I'm more interested in the steak (blade) not the sizzle...(handle)

We discussed this last night on ph. Can't see the whole blade in many of the pics

Do you have a web site showing and pricing your knives? Very nice work, I liked alot of them. Are you familiar with other Mississippi knife makers, Charles May or Gene Ingram?

 

[ol bumpy]

Dang....Bet you had fun sanding that palm. Sure turned out good though....

Do you buy your wood at Pickens?
