Not posted for a while, but I'm still ticking over. I've got a truly unique commission going on in the back ground that I can't wait to share.
In the mean time, I've started my first dagger

I know I've been a little quiet on the old Instagram, but I have been working on a few bits. I've just recently finished a wedding set for some great friends of ours. The set comprises of a cake knife made from 440c stainless steel with a spiral fluted maple wood burl handle and stainless fittings and a cake server also made from 440c stainless steel with a maple burl spiral fluted handle and stainless steel fittings.
The maple wood box was made by the brides father and I 3d printed a insert for the box that was then flocked.

Found a bit of time to spend on the large Bowie today, managed to get one side upto 1500 grit. I'll leave at this for now and I'll do a final finishing hand sand when the rest of the knife is complete.

Alright, first day back in the workshop. I'll bring you up to speed.
The hunter is up to 1500grit on main bevels and the clip is upto 200p grit and is now more or less ready for guard fit up.
The Bowie has only the top clip finished at 1200 grit so has a lot of work still left.
I've turned the meteorite pommel nut to rough dimensions and threaded. The 3rd knife is going to be a guardless bowie with keyhole style meteorite bolsters on a tapered tang. As you can see that knife is still bar stock.
Ill start on the main bevels on the large Bowie today as there's a lot of hand sanding to come.
Cheers

Hope everyone has had a great Christmas.
I've been away from knife making for a couple of months for various reasons and other projects. But I'm back onto it now.
This will be a 3 blade set from RWL34 stainless with meterorite fittings and black curly birch handles, complete with a one off custom display case and leather work.
The set is what I'll use for my final grading exam into the Australian knife makers guild. Its going to be a complex build and will take me sometime to finish but I'm hoping to push myself to create something very unique.

Sorry I've been absent with updates on the meteorite set of knives, but I've bought a new car which needed work done to it before I can tow my caravan and go camping. I'm hoping to jump back in at the end of November with the aim of completing them for the Perth knife show.

Anybody got any hints or tips for drilling meterorite 🤷‍♂️
