Knife comp entry...Knife complete

[thebushcrafter99]

:You_Rock_ :yikes: this is exactly what makes me feel completely useless

but what a great knife I've never really been keen on mono pins but i love this one for some reason and the transition from the handle to the bolster is great!

now all that needs to happen is you need to become a maker and i need to earn some money

all in all GREAT KNIFE

 

[WULF]

Thats great,love the angular lines on the handle and bolster.great job

 

[plastic-ninja]

Just as stunning as we all knew it was going to be!
I bet you haven't stopped grinning and stroking that knife yet have you?
It might be a tad excessive as a kitchen knife but post-holocaust cutlass definitely.
Classy , Simon

PS Bushcrafter's right ; you should become a maker Mark!

Assuming you mean you would like one of his knives, Mark is already more than a maker (Silver Trader) so he could make you one if you had the funds. Take a look at the website in his signature to see some more of his work. He made me one a few months back and it truly is a thing of beauty.

There are 4 catagories for makers on here.
Maker (Hobbiest)
Maker plus ( can take commissions)
Silver trader ( pro maker)
Gold trader. ( more money than sense )

I was a maker till i upgraded to silver trader. Trader status is for professional makers, Gold trader is for pro makers with more money than me,

now all that needs to happen is you need to become a maker and i need to earn some money

Cheers guys.

Simon.... its been given a coat of renaissance wax and wrapped up until i make its suit of armour and get it properly photographed I was gonna photograph it besides that kukhuri, but it made my knife look small and puny

I can't think of anything that would make that knife look puny mate ;it's a beast.Not even the zombicidal kukhuri.
Looking forward to seeing it in it's fetish gear!

[HillBill]

Hmmm, not too puny but still..... so long as i dont take a pic of both their spines i might get away with it....

 

[HillBill]

Thanks Tom

Nice one Mark, very nice.

 

[HillBill]

Point of balance

 

[plastic-ninja]

I know which one I'd have Mark! :notworthy

 

[HillBill]

Yeah, you don't need arms like Arnie to use the bowie

 

[copper_head]

Great read this thread, lovely knife. Love the angular look of it

 

[HillBill]

Cheers mate

I saw this in the flesh yesterday...... Wow. Mark is a true master of his art.

The finish and quality is staggering, the pictures don't do it justice. This is a museum piece... Breathtaking.

touched by nature

brilliant thread thanks for sharing . And what a awesome knife I think the coffin like shape through-out the knife is classy and nice bit of wood also .
good job

 

[HillBill]

Thanks Steve

Cheers Paddy

There are 2 things i want to say....

1st Your set up is sexy and i want it lol

now thats out of the way.....

2nd that is a cracking knife, everything about it says clean lines and beauty, the bolster IS inspired (agree with BritishRed here) and very original, as is the handle shape. The fact that the but looks as symmetrical as it does shows how much planning and precision went into it. This is a brilliant example of skill and precision.

I am traumatised by the idea that Mark has an attractively symmetrical butt
