This is a variation on Aaron Gough’s sanding block (at least that is where I saw this first). The idea behind it is that you have a block with three flat sides that you can use as backing for your sandpaper, and the fourth side of the block serves to Read more
This one is from a remainder of D2 / Bohler K110 that I left to marinate in the shop for a couple of years before finally using it. Handle is micarta with brass liners, blade is polished to P1200 – a little higher than my usual P600 or 800. Sheath Read more
Same blade shape as the previously shown knife – but the handle is a bit simpler (stainless guard, G10 + brass spacers, wood is padauk). This one has some tell-tale signs of an amateur knifemaker’s work (such as the grind not being symmetric and centered), but it still might make Read more
I really like this blade profile (I stole it of course), there will be more of these in the future. Handle is composed of a brass bolster, red G10 spacers, some imitation of ivory, and a stabilized walnut burl. The sheath is of course very basic, but it holds the Read more
A friend asked for a knife with a scandi grind – so naturally I waited about two years and then I made it. The knife has many blemishes even for my low standards, and the “sheath” is very rudimentary. But done is better than perfect, this one is going out Read more
Hey there! Long time no see. The blade for this knife was actually ready since last summer. However, because I thought it looks very nice, I was reluctant to finish the knife, from fear of messing it up. I manned up, and finally did in the past couple of weeks. Read more
I originally made two blades for the Fairbairn Sykes dagger project, but did not get around to finishing it. Until now, that is. This one has a brass handle, which should be more true to the orginal. It definitely has more gravity in it. The handle was patinated with an Read more
This was supposed to be a copy of a knife made by Robert Erickson, and although the blade turned out ok, the handle looks nothing like the original. I can’t shake the feeling that the whole thing looks like a fish. Blade is N690, 10 cm long, handle is stabilized Read more
This one took a while to finish. The blade was finished even before the summer started, but then other projects got in the way and here we are. Originally the blade was meant to have a bright, hand rubbed finish, but during the fitting of the guard I inadvertently made Read more
Variations on bird and trout knives. Both are 3 mm thick N690 steel, G10 handles, 10 cm blade length (20,5 overall).
