    Default I wanna show ya' somethin...a Scalloped Beauty

    This is one that I had finished a while back (6 months or so), but it was naked. I have come to decide that I would rather work with steel making blades than another media making scales. The steel is 1095 that I made with rather affordable tools that pretty much anyone could afford: Ryobi 4x36 sander from a big box lumber store, a Sears wet grinder, cheap high speed buffer, lots of sandpaper, & lots of time. I'm in the process of building a 2x72 grinder quite similar to Brad's...just have a few parts to go. The scales are black horn.

    Shooter, that's seriously beautiful. 'Hard to imagine the tooling would be within reach of the avg. guy. You have a background in metal work?

    However you did this, its lovely. Very big grats.

    Stunning looking blade.

    The spine work is wonderful but what I'm really drawn to the nice huge notch near the heal. Since it's pretty much center blade, it's neat how my focal point is centered there, enjoying all else around it

    Thats true! On looking a bit more, you could almost open a beer bottle with that notch!
