Lets get some pictures up

[JakeR]

Hi,
I'd like to devote a thread to pictures of your knives etc, i enjoy seeing what you have dotted around the forum, but a specified picture thread may be quite interesting.

Now before you tell me off for not posting any pictures of my kit, heres the reason, im completely useless with computers, but i will keep trying!

I have found that by looking at other peoples stuff, you can sort out the problems with your kit....firestick holders for example.

Cheers,

Jake

My Eklund bushcraft user blade in snakewood:

Side view after a fresh etch bath and some playing around:

My previous Eklund wih paduk scales:

In UHB20C carbon steel at about rc59 The top one is a somewhat lighter/pointier version compared to the bottom one. The bottom one has a bit more belly. Both are great users.

Here is my SAK Tinker with a meteorite a friend of mine found and gave to me.

and the SAK Atlas which makes a great woods knife with it's large frame, locking blade and saw.

"Nessmuk" was the pen name of George W Sears, an american writer who (at the turn of the twentieth Centuary) wrote a classic book on bushcraft and the outdoors, called Woodcraft and Camping. I got a copy from Amazon last week, and it's a good read! On page 8 of the Dover Edition is an illustration of an axe, a knife and a pen knife - laid out just as in the picture above.

I ordered the blanks by my specs from Maihkel Eklund and finished these blades myself, but he will make a complete knife for you if you want.

Here's the link:

These blades are basically a larger and slightly modified version of the full tang blade in his collection, in a different steel and thickness.

[larry the spark]

Looks great NB, been meaning to have a go at that for a while now.... was that your first attempt and did you find it easy to do?

 

[Chopper]

Hoodoo...

[the naughty boy]

its easy mate,all you need is a dremmel or the cheaper b+q version,the sandpaper drum bit and the very thin grinding wheel.

the biggest hurdle is the first cut ,also dont start on your best and favorite knife lol :roll:

The axe was made by Lee Reeves. Top quality. His site is here:

I have a small single bit hatchet on order since last June. The wait then was 6 mos but Lee had a bad accident and was incapacitated for awhile but he's back working now and I'm hoping I'll see that little hatchet soon.
