They'll be burning witches at the stake next.................................. Honestly , whatever next. They should just leave us alone. Don't worry , I have no need for any medicines whatsoever I live in a bubble.

Hiya mate , I was just looking at one of your old threads on BB about using a file as a blade ! I made an adjustable jig for the grinds and it's a real good piece of kit , as to the tang I take it you mean the tapers ? you just run the taper to and fro on the belt grinder , and have to use a...

Here are 3 knives out of five I'm doing . 01 steel 4.5mm thick , black speckled corian scales , stainless loveless bolts , red liners. General purpose bushcraft/ camp knife. This One's a file blades knife , so it's W1/2 for the blade , 6mm at the spine , black speckled...

Very nice indeed and very sought after.

Lol Warren , I thought you would've been a member here already. So , hi and welcome aboard mate.

Nice , like the head knife by itself too. I have it on my long term shopping list and on my things to do/learn list.

Knobsticks are made by either using the shoot and roots or by a 'v' cut down. One of the arms/shoots it cut down and shaped the other is left long for the stick. Actually , quite difficult to explain , but I asked this of the professional stick maker 'the stick man' and he said I was quite...

Could try waxed paper too.

Really enjoyed watching that thanks for posting the links.

First one is very individual love it mate.

Knife blades. Belt buckles made in a pennanular brooch style. Fire strikers. 'S' hooks for the camp fire. More knife blades. Fire pokers or eating pokers. Sporks. A few more knife blades .

A bit late , but happy birthday mate.

Thanks everyone your very kind.

What about using one of those wallpaper steamers plumbed into a large diameter pipe , create a shelf so the wood that's to be bent doesn't sit in hot water and away you go......er in theory anyway ....not tested it myself but I understand walking stick makers have used this method.

Cheers Raikey , designs are mine , I've used them a few times on various things. I was in the Vikings doing re-enactment for a few years so some things kinda rub off on you. I just hope my mate wife likes it as she's a very good mate of mine too . I wished I had a little more time mind you to...

The skewer looks very nice indeed and looks like a very nice fire poker. Bracelet of course will go rusty as you used mild but that would be excellent in stainless. I made a belt buckle that would look great with that , so if you make a stainless one i'd be up for buying one.

I was approached some time ago to make a knife for a mates wife. She's of viking decent so he wanted to give her something a bit different / special , so knowing I was making knives he asked me to come up with a viking styled knife and sheath. The sheath was my very first attempt at using veg...

Your first time with leather is much better than my first effort. Great work you've done there .

That's a +1 from me too.

Cheers fellas , the only way I can think of to improve just such a knife is to use a stainless blade and stainless loveless bolts and lanyard hole. I say improve but what I really mean is super clean. As yet I don't know where to find such material for the blade plus to be honest I've never...
