Title: 2 new ones (resized pictures)
Post by: jvholt on April 18, 2010, 02:20:00 AM

I just got and shot my first bow a couple weeks ago, so I'm new around here. But I have been making knives for a while. Here are a couple of my latest. The damascus blade is made from a bar that I got from Dan Seaver. It has an ironwood handle with a stainless guard and buffalo horn spacer. The other knife is made from 1080 steel with a brass guard ebony spacer and walnut handle.

Glad you re-sized the pictures so people can see them Jonathon. They deserve to be seen!  
 Guys, I don't know the specs, but I've held them and they are the perfect sized users. Mike

Very nicely done.
Fit and finish look impeccable.
I would be afraid to carry either one of them. They are works of art.
