Three More Finished
« on: May 10, 2009, 06:37:18 PM »
Been a little busy in the shop the last few days completing some blanks I've had shaped for six months

Top is a Black Locust handled camp/butcher from bandsaw steel

Middle is a local Black Walnut handled Nesmuck style for Roaring bulls brother Steve

Bottom is a Pecan handled short scalper

Wow!  Jerry what's going to happen if you run out of lawn mower blades and band saw blade before it stops raining.  As usual you have made some beautiful knives.

Looking good, Jerry!  I like the walnut handled one the best.  Looks real swell!

I think that middle knife is just the right size for a good 90% my needs...I somehow feel I just might hurt myself with that bottom knife.. :shock:

Nice looking knives , Jerry....all of 'em.
