I would like to sell these two knives I made:

This one is 210mm long, the blade is 100mm long, 30mm wide in 3 mm 01 tool steel. the handle is reclaimed mahogany with a lovely ripple effect, the photos don't really do it justice. The sheath is made of 3mm veg tan leather from Le Prevo. SOLD

I am asking £65 for each knife including special delivery(next day, uk only) and paypal fee! Anywhere else, at cost.

This second one is also 3mm 01 tool steel, 210mm long, the blade is 95mm long and 28mm wide. The handle is Rosewood. The sheath is 3mm veg tan from Le Prevo.

thanks snufkin.. Yes they are a bit low, aren't they.. I suppose I had not made them specifically to be sold, and they helped me to relearn skills long forgotten, I trained as a tool maker over 35 years ago. So when I get my sticky fingers on that belt grinder, I'l start to build my knife making empire ;) , i'll put the prices up...They'll be collectors items then!!! Better buy now while inexpensive....... :rolleyes:

35 years ago? Doesn't look like you've forgotten very much :) .
It's a nice looking sander. I did use a handheld one bolted to my workmate upside down but it made too much noise. Now I hog off some of the metal with an angle grinder and then just file it.

Sorry to hijack the thread but I checked out that sander and also like the look of the cheaper one (£60) on the Axminster website:

I have had a Perform bandsaw for 3 or 4 years now and I have been quite happy with it. The motors are less powerful but perfectly adequate for most hobby use. I am just after something a bit more solid!

jojo,

Knife came today and it looks and feels fantastic :You_Rock_

I know it sounds very corny but the pics just don't do it justice. The handle seems to sparkle as if it's flecked with gold :eek:

Can't wait to start playing with it at the weekend.

I showed it to my sidekick in the office and it blew him away! He said "if felt like a knife should" :p

Thanks

Andy

I am pleased you like it Andy. I rescued that particular piece of mahogany from a bonfire pile some while ago when I worked in a boatyard! Pity, it's all gone now :( I also found a piece of rippled Oak recently, that will end up as knife handle material as well!

Jojo,

I'm surprised there have been no takers for the second knife :confused:

Mine is great. Used it a little past couple of weekends and it has felt as good in use as it looks.

Thanks and good luck with evil bay!
