Thanks for the kind words guys! Kayla appreciates the photo comments as well. Tracey I think auodad is short for "stinks worse than any goat on the face of the earth". You keep smelling them days after you have skinned them.

Made these for a customer and his son who owns an outfitting service. Auodad horn tapered tangs cpm-154 416 bolster Let me know what you think

Bubba-san And Mr. Bump, thanks for the replies. The thoughts you both mentioned are what my brother in law and I both discussed. "There is allot of waste steel even if all goes right" I also wondered if this was just a natural part of the twist pattern. It does split or cause some sort of...

Guys, My brother in law has built a small press and started learning how to make damascus. So far we've made a total of two bars lol the second being a twist pattern where we ran into trouble. The billet started 3 in long and we drew it out to a cube of around 8". We pressed on both side the...

Thanks Knife Nut, I only plan on doing 2 more slip joints, for now. I am working on learning liner locks and have plans to do some of them completely out of damascus depending on the weight.

Thanks Greg!

Thanks Rudy, Guys Kayla says she has a few spots still open. Just let her know kayla@knifephotosbykayla.com. Thanks again

Sounds great Ernie I will make sure she got the email. Bill no problem I will let her know to add one more to the list. Thanks

Carey she'd be more than happy to photograph any of your knives! Count, she's been reading, talking with, and learning from several places. Stan, she got your email. Look forward to seeing your knives. Thanks all

Thanks Wade and James. I just wanted to try something a little different this go around. The damascus didn't add near as much weight as I expected. I would keep trimming and contouring the handle until the weight was down. I honestly don't think you would notice difference until you had a normal...

Guys, My wife Kayla has been starting in knife photography and has done a few of the guys knives here. She recently upgraded her point and shoot camera to a better camera and is offereing this deal to build her portfolio. You can see some of her older pictures on her website...

Been a while, here's a cpm-154 blade and spring slip joint, along with damascus handles. The handle is milled for relief. Also first time cutting a nail nick with a stone. I did several practice runs and no problems, then the edge chipped out while cutting this one :sad::12:

No pics. I haven't talked to Mr. Hurst since he received the knife, need to give him a hollar and see how goes it

I haven't been on much, but I got on here the other day to see what you'd been up to. Hope things are looking up now.

Thanks for the post and pm Craig. I was finding the wheel, but no type of arbor. Thanks a million. Ryan

Craig, Thanks for the post. By chance do you know of a mandrel you can by from possible msc or enco that would hold a surface grinding wheel and then be chucked into a mill?

Sean, I had Paul Bos heat treat the steel. I thinned the steel down some, but CPM has a natural flex to it especially over the length of these knives. It's not alot and I wish it had more, but I think these will be good knives.

Thanks Pieter!

Thanks Danny, I used cpm-154. I love that steel and it has some flex to it as well

Thanks Sean, the secondary is the 20 degree from a Lansky.
