long term nessmuk users?

[Hoodoo]

Always wanted to see one done like that - just the the original picture

That would be lovely to see

Red

Not a perfect rendition of the original but not bad. Same one that's in my avatar.

Every time I see that image I get a laugh. I scanned that at least a half dozen years ago or more and it's still popping up here and there. I know that one's hosted on Jimbo's site so I know the location. But when I don't know the host, I still know when it's my scan because the scanner had an annoying habit of adding that line on the right side of scans. No longer have that scanner.

It is indeed

I scanned it myself a while back and mailed it to stu (mitchell) when we were chattering but never got around to hosting it!

You are bad for me Hoodoo - I have the Reeves now I need the Nessie knife

That pin through the hidden tang is exactly what I had in mind

Now that handle on jojos blade would be about perfect!

Damn I want to see that - do make it a Scandy pretty please - a proper recreation?????????

Oh my god... I have a knife Red sorta pines for...

What sort of upside down, backwards world have I found my self in?????

 

[British Red]

I don't need one but I have never given one a good work out and I do like the "old school" style.

To be honest I have my entire knife needs covered functionally. The PFK for everyday use and "Beater" and "Biter" when I want knife flexibility. My Flyssa for a big camp knife and my Singeblister Hornet when I want a small knife. Paired up with my Ablett pocket knife its all I need.

There are some others I like though - I would love to play with a proper Nessie. I would also like a real Sgian Dubh and Dirk pair at some point,

Really a matter of inerest rather than need - but your Nessie does look nice

Is it done yet???

 

[seved]

I harden it but i got out of my deepfreezing media so i couldnt finnish it. I will HRC test it on tusday. Then i am start to build it.

BTW: i Harden regular nessis to this weekend in 26C a swedish carbon steel. 3mm thick.

[British Red]

Like the sound of the Carbon ones with an antler handle! The damascus could be too....fancy?

Red

 

[seved]

Yes i think they going to be nice. Carbon nessis is more of a worker i think. You going to see more of them, i going to make some knives of a few of the blades and put out under makers corner.. Yes and i can put deer stag on one of them.

Yes the damasknessi is more of a fancy knife. I think it going to be sold with one of ceggas damaskaxes.

Seved

 

[British Red]

Well, given I have a cegga carbon, it may be sensible to put a stag handled one on a carbon one

You know cegga and I are working on a new Nessmuk axe ?

Hmmmm

Red

 

[seved]

Yes its can be a nice pair.That sounds nice. Have you come a long way with it.

Seved

 

[British Red]

Dne a couple of prototypes - hope to really get going when Cegga finishes his big damascus run for the trade show

Red

 

[seved]

He send axes and thinngs with damasteel today i think.

I forgott to show you the pics.

Seved

 

[British Red]

Nice!

The one on the right with the light shining on it is crying out for an antler roll (looks nicely curvy that one)

Red

 

[seved]

Yes it have a nice shape.old school shape maybe.

Seved

 

[British Red]

But will it be hidden tanh like Hoodoos?
