I had bruno hand make my custom blade since I don't have the resources to make a custom blade start to finish. But this rout let's me become part of the procedd. Here's some pics of how it looked during process and my progress.ill post more as I get more done. I'm waiting on my horn scale material to come in now. When I'm done sanding and polishing the blade I am having a pin up girl laser etched on the blade. Thanks for everyone help so far and bruno of course for the fine piece of steel!
Looks good! Can't wait to see progress pic's
The bottom two pics are from bruno. That's the grind he sends out . Bottom is after heat treatment. Thought about leaving grind marks but decided not.The top two are today after my hands got tired of sanding lol show side is close to done.
Finally decided on a scale design I wanted to leave a lot of blade showing since I will have blade etched.
Liking the progress of another "Brunoblade"
Update. Roughed out scales. Finish sand, wedge, and pins tomorrow. Then I gotta order some hones!
Is that horn? almost looks like bone in the pic either way, very nice design.
Should have mentioned. The beautiful horn I have laying on the bench is 1/4 too short for my design so I went with ivory acrylic.
Awl man! are you going to do a horn wedge then? either way the scales look great.Quote:

Still no pins and micro fastener in the mail!!!! But used my drill bits to get it sanded. Wish this horn would've fit for the scale but these are turning out great for my first set. Thinking about texturing em somehow. Thoughts?@
Very nice work,maybe some day i may try to build my own ...
Progressing very well there showeshiner looks awesome
