Title: It’s Been Awhile
Post by: fordguy_85 on June 09, 2019, 06:34:12 PM

Hey guys, it’s been ages since I’ve posted here, and I do apologize for that. I’ve been working loads of OT at work, bought a house on a bit of land away from town, continued all 82 of my hobbies, and just generally been covered up. Anyway, I wanted to say ‘howdy’ to all y’all and share some of my recent knives that I’ve made and am working on.

The pink one was supposed to be a small hunting knife for myself, but my oldest daughter said it fit her hand “Like some kind of redneck Cinderella”, and so I couldn’t possibly keep it for myself after that lol.

The last small blade I forged from a 1” diameter ball bearing to see what I could get out of a small piece of steel.

Nice!  I'd love to learn metalworking like this...maybe before I retire I can learn such a valuable skill!

Good hearing from you!!!
