Hey TW! Let's see your knives!

Depends on the daily use. Hard use NO, a few packages and cutting into kids toys or stuff like that yep. For my daily primary (work) I have a Chaves CHUB and Tirant RZR. The other knife I carry is typically a secondary. I can dull an M390 blade in one day with my work and I don't feel like stropping and sharpening knives every day/week especially the super hard super steels.

 

Awesome, Thanks for the info.

 

To add my UTX-85 already has a little staining and scuffs from me carrying it for the few months I've had it. It's one of the knives I like carrying the most.

 

Got this beauty in the mail today.

Birdvis Hitchcock

 

That is absolutely stunning!!! My favorite knife on this thread.

 

Nick Birdvis is killing it. I absolutely love his work and was fortunate to snag this one from him last week

 

Beau-ti-ful!!!

 

That’s truly amazing. I see your work on par with this for sure!

 

I carry a OTF daily and love it. This is my EDC

 

Got a custom for the kitchen handcrafted by Ray https://rtknives.com/ love it so far.

 

That’s sweet!!

 

A tad pricey but had to have it being a benchmade fan their new kitchen station knife

 

Man thank you! I am working my tail off to the learn and create really nice quality pieces.

I purchased a custom meater. I love it. Told my wife I want the rest of the culinary set with matching handles for my birthday.


Just finished up these sweet mule combo scales.

 

Been tempted a few times now.

 

It cuts like a dream I definitely want to get the meater and the 3 piece set with the chefs knife. I picked it up in cpm-154 but they also had 440c which was a few bucks less. It was worth it to me, I have all these nice knifes that normally just collect dust. This one will actually get used on a weekly basis, easier to sell the wife on too it’s for “us” haha

 

Oh my, what material did you used? Looks beautifully done.

 

Color swirl resin casts from Beyond Wood Products and black paper micarta. I gotta give credit to Flying Shark Knifes, he does the combo glue ups and has the eye for matching the perfect combination of materials.

 

I want to get into knife making; more seriously when I retire, quite a whiles out into the future, but figured I will get a slow start.
I have some woodworking experience and tools, but zero forge tools or experience, so I started with a kit that came with a pre-made blade; I just had to make the scales. Next will be getting a hardened blank that I will cut/grind the blade from, and then work my way up to getting a forge to do the whole thing from scratch.

 

Here is an interesting one from my collection, the Kershaw Wild Turkey.

 

Shhhhh don't tell the kiddo I opened her knife. It was supposed to come before she went to her mom's she'll get to "open" it Monday when she gets back. She got the CJRB limited MaLeigh. I got the CKF, can anyone guess the model???
