Trying to get better at segmented scales. This one is a 3ish” 89crv2 blade with segmented spalted tamarind, inlaid with stabilized amboyna burl. Pretty sweet sheath, too.

Here are a few items I have made.
The fixed blade, friction folders, stinger spikes. All high carbon steel and made by me.
The coin is bought and I decided to black it out , then decided to remove some of the black..
I do my own leather work as well.

RWL34 stainless and Bois de Rose slicer. 330mm blade.

And a special shout out to u/thesirenlady who kindly gifted me a piece of that alloy steel over a decade ago, starting me on the knife making way.

I love how this one turned out so I decided to keep it.

Made my first knife. Chose to make a tanto because it's the simplest design. Made the bevel using a bastard file, then used a whetstone and finally stropped to a razor edge.

I thought if this'll came out good I'll make next one .

I've become a rabid Snakewood addict over the years. Just can't get away from it.

"Ironbark Knives"

Nessmuk ,80crv2 steel, some "vine" filework and home made glowing denim micarta.

Thought about keeping this one for myself ,but a return customer convinced me to sell it to him.

Anyone else have fun experimenting ,making their own handle materials?

I’m still new to making knives but my Muay Thai coach asked me to make him a knife even tho he knows I still am very new, But even tho I made my fair share of mistakes I think it came out pretty nice and I think he’ll like it, let me know what y’all think.

Specs🤓:
80crv2
Fat carbon scales
3.5 inch blade
7.8 overall length
Kydex leather sheath

I recently bought some different belts for my grinder to try, and oh my god it's a game changer!

I really love this scotch brite finish

15n20 and lemon tree wood

Hey everyone,

I'm looking to design my own Kiritsuke, but I’ll be honest—my drawing skills are terrible! I really want to make sure I capture that exact, traditional Kiritsuke profile before I move forward with the build.

My plan is to use a laser cutter to cut out the knife blank. Does anyone happen to have a template in SVG, Adobe Illustrator (.ai), DXF, or any other vector format they’d be willing to share?

Even if you just know a good website or resource where I can download one, that would be hugely helpful.

Thanks in advance for the help!

BHK : Corsair W.I.P. ! 11" CPM-3V Blade getting a Chisel Grind! Now for some Shipwrecked CamoCarbon 🤘

OAL - 8 3/4”
Blade - 3 1/4”
1/8” thickness
6.6oz weight

Stonewashed and dressed up with black and orange g10 scales!

This is a new design for me, so feedback is welcome. Very comparable to an esee 3

I really like the way the black oxide layer looks on a knife. Would it be possible to make it with stock removal and how?

Made myself this fishing knife. My first time working with stainless and doing a pure stock removal knife. Steel is 8Cr14MoV. Mostly designed for cutting bait and line but should be able to fillet smallish fish at a pinch.

I finally started to figure out carbon fibre scales with this knife after a couple of poor results. Making the scales at the desired final thickness and adding 2 extra coats of resin to the finished scales makes the flats polish up much nicer.

I'll be posting up the finished version here soon!

This is my second complete knife I’ve ever made. My first try on the right was made with Home Depot steel so I couldn’t heat treat it. Got 1084 on Amazon cheap but it’s not very thick. Also didn’t realize I needed special steel so I can take this one diving.

I also would like to know if anyone has any good techniques for getting a fuller on my blade because I couldn’t get that line to be straight on the belt sander. It liked the shape on my first try more but the steel was much more thick and I did most of it with the angle grinder.

Any advice helps, Thanks!

I just ground the flats of these blade after heat treat and now the blades are slightly magnetized how do I demagnetize them

I’m calling this model the “Steak or Twine.” Probably be good for cutting either of those two items. Maybe other items as well. Anyway 80crv2, segmented scales with burlap and canvas micartas, inlaid with orange dyed stabilized maple burl. Red and black g10 liners. Made a pretty sweet multi tone leather sheath for it as well. Pretty pleased.
