Thanks mate that looks great, can’t wait to see it in the flesh.
Can I have a measurement on the spine of the big cooks knife?
It’s 2.5mm at the handle, the distal taper runs from there to the point. Blade is 210 long and just under 50mm deep.
@JizzFlinger, exactly like your sex life. 50mm deep. I see the attraction now. 
Don’t be angry, I’ll buy you dinner when you’re down

Well, at least you’re buying him dinner.
Yeah but 50mm x 6 strokes is 12 inches baby. Brace yourself.

I was asked if I could put a display of my knives and blacksmithing in the local Ag-show, I put this lot together. ( Actually had one bloke who wouldn’t believe me that I made them).
I even won first prize in the metalwork section for one of my campfire tripods.

Hmm, if I sell guns I can buy more knives 
Ooh, I want an Axe!
I got a photo of Grandad somewhere like 20 ft up a tree trunk with half a dozen spring boards chopped into it. I remember we were at the golf club and he was chopping down a tree and a chip came out of the blade the size of a 1c coin. He almost had a tear running down his face. Id never seen Grandad actually sad before. Ever.

Just don’t sell too many though, remember the wise words. “Never bring a knife to a gun fight.”

Couple I just hurriedly finished for the stall this weekend. I need inventory so I’ve got something to display. Forged 7" Bowie from 5160 with laminate handle and another belt/utility knife from 80CrV2 with stabilised Spalted Sassafras handle. ( don’t tell @AusTac I did a Scandi grind knife… 
)

Both nice blades mate but which ones the scandi!? Perhaps the bottom on is a very high scandi? Love the handles 
Just messin’ with ya mate, it would be on a larger blade. That small one is only 18mm.
@JizzFlinger , One antler, (I need to go shoot a few stags, I’m out of that now), one micarta and one stabilised timber.
Cool!
Antler: stamped with “E.W.M.” - File work on the tang/spine please
Micarta: stamped with “J.G.” - Simple finish
Timber: stamped with “J.B.” - Simple finish
Where possible, orange liners. TAKE MY MONEY!
Anyone would say you’ve put some thought into this…

@JizzFlinger At least you’ll be able to find each other at the Mardi Gras…
I actually had a little Canyon Hunter (without the racing stripes lol), it was a cracker of a knife until it decided it wanted to be free somewhere in the Vic High Country.
