For the manner in which men live is so different from the way in which they ought to live, that he who leaves the common course for that which he ought to follow will find that it leads him to ruin rather than safety.

Three New Finished Knives

Some progress was made tonight...


The first of its kind! The Tacti-Hunter. 4 3/8" cutting edge, approx. 9" OA. 3/16" thick A2 blade. The handle is my own black canvas micarta. The blade is sandblasted.


Another view of the Tacti-Hunter.
Large Outdoor knife with sandblasted finish.

Small Outdoor knife...also sandblasted.
I made the micarta for all three knives...canvas on top, burlap for the Outdoor knives. I only sanded the handles up to 150 grit so as to not have them clash with the texture of the blade. I think they all turned out really neat.
