two bush knives im working on

[mark.177]

a couple of twinned larger bush knives in 5mm o1 steel, 5 1/2" blades. just added some jimping pin and balance holes before heat treat. i use various reject scales and pin off cuts to help gauge this and leave a little room to shave some steel off here and there.

Nice. There was a "If you could only have one knife to survive..." thread recently on bushcraft USA - and those are pretty much what I would want in that awful scenario.

Mark, those are amazing mate. Nothing more to say really

What is the black coating?

What is the black coating?

its cold gun bluing, does wear off with time but helps kick start a patina

 

[Mick721]

Are these up for sale then?

Absolutely stunning craftsmanship on your work. I am certain anyone would be proud to own one of your knives, Mark.177.
