My first attempts
Here's my first attempts at making knives. I'm pretty happy with how they turned out, but there's always room for improvement. 1095 steel. Cerakote finish. Diy jean and felt micarta handles. Diy leather sheaths(also first attempt). Comments and suggestions are always welcome.

That's very impressive for a first knife, much better than most. The next challenge will be to lose the Cerakote and the black coloring so that finish work on the metal, handle, and leather can be seen.
Also, you should read through this thread: http://www.knifenetwork.com/forum/sh...ad.php?t=63318 Those should be your test blades and you should show them no mercy ... |
