Two More. A Short Cutlass or Machete With a D Guard, And A Kukri or Khukuri
Both are forged from leaf springs. The cutlass has a 14 1/4" blade, just shy of 19" overall. The guard was forged from an old wrench, hardened and tempered blue. This is my first attempt at fullers. They are ground in. I left the forge scale on in hopes of disguising the amatuerish appearance a bit. Through tang, peened sword style, for the grip. That wood was a gift, don't know what it is. The Kukri/Khukuri has an 8 3/4" blade, 13 1/2" overall. It's not trying to be a real Nepalese copy. Has a full tang and no cho notch. It's a little thin by contemporary standards, but my understanding is that a lot of the old ones were thinner. I worked with what I had. Both blades are around 3/16" at the thickest spot, and both have distal taper forged in. I tapered the full tang of the Kukri, too. The cutlass sheath is leather with a frog, kukri is wood core, leather covered, also with a frog.

This project has been dormant for a while. Finally cobbled together an exhaust. It's just got so much rust in the body. Should have started with a better donor car, but oh well. The price was right.
Forged Sloyd-Style Knife With Leather and Wood Sheath
Переглядів 3253 роки тому
I made this from a little leftover piece of the same 1937 Ford leaf spring I used for the last Bowie. This time, I was actually successful in forging the bevels and profile, so I had a lot less grinding to do. I normalized, hardened, and tempered it without much fuss. Quartersawn Black Cherry handle, leather sheath with a Tulip Poplar case around the blade. The dangler eye is just old brazing r...
Harpoon Clip Bowie Finished, With Sheath
Переглядів 3553 роки тому
1937 Ford leaf spring, Ash handle (nothing fancy here, just a plain piece of leftover wood). Veg tan sheath holds the knife in pretty well for now, but we'll see what the future brings. I feel like I'm starting to do a better job with the plunge cuts. I cold blued the blade with one application, then buffed it with fine steel wool and oil. The usual cameo by Penny. She loves to dig.

Just some shots of the handle and guard. I was going to use 3 pins in the handle, but decided one would do. Quartersawn ash stained a little. No finish yet. Still got plenty of fiddly finish work to do.

Honesty compels me to admit that, although I tried a little rudimentary beveling at the forge, this is mostly a stock reduction deal. 7" blade, 3/16" at the tang, full distal taper, just sanded to 220 grit for now. Dog Penny is still happy and healthy. Knock on wood.

Just a look at the axe I handmade the handle for in previous videos. You can see that, as it dried, I was able to take up that gap it had under the collar. Also a look at a mask I made for it. I feel like my leatherwork is improving.

1967 Llama Especial in .22lr. Knocked together a little paddle style holster for it. You can see where I glued a plug in one hole I punched wrong. Oh well. My leatherwork is pretty utilitarian. The thumb break holds it snug with the hammer down. I carry in position 3. Spare me the lectures, please. It's my gun, after all.

Just what the title says. Messed up and left a couple of dents in the leather with a spring clip. If I can't get them out, l'll either live with them or make another one. Brief cameo by new dog Penny, a rescue adoption and a good girl.

Looks like a great idea. Did it siphon back to the radiator as the engine cooled down?
I can see the difference because of the shape of the tail.
...one of the nicest seaxes I`ve seen so far.....excellent job, Sir!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Beautiful work!
the "sabre" seemed to be shortened from an originally longer blade
Is this for sale?
Sorry, no. I made it as a gift for one of my daughters.
Ótima serra
My pen name is Pepe Juan but my real name is Wes Brown, kinda funny, really cool knife thanks for posting Wes 👍😁💪🏻
Nice awesome job
Что не говори у Европейских производителей ножы вроде бы простые , но выглядят супер .
Nice looking knives! Huge fan of the clip point!
👍👍👍👍
You are very talented if you made those knifes and the sheath's. I am very impressed.
I appreciate that. I did make them. It's a hobby I've developed over the past few years.

Thank you.
Very nice! Is that a one-off or something you regularly make?
Thank you. I'm just a hobbyist. Everything is a one-off.
It’s very nice!
Wow😮😮😮, Bowie is just amazing!!!!!
Неказисто, но практично.
Awesome looking blade and sheath, nice work!
Ни фига себе! Вот это нож. Класс!
I'm sorry but that's not a Bowie...☹️
Probably not. But what is a Bowie, anyway? Haha. I should have said "Bowie inspired", I guess.
It is a knife designed by rezin Bowie before the Alamo, very distinct style so it is a specific design 😐
@@jamesduncan6615 Right, but I don't know of any reliable documentation of what the original Bowie design was, exactly. Perhaps you can direct me to that? The point I was making is that there is no real way to realistically prove that any knife is a "Bowie". There are certain characteristics, like the clip point, that are generally agreed upon, but no real hard and fast guidelines, as far as I'm aware. Even then, if you look at, say, Civil War D guard "Bowies", you will find huge variations in size, blade design, handle construction, etc. That's what I meant when I asked "what is a Bowie, anyway". You are right, though. I should have been more careful with my description. I wasn't trying to claim that this little knife is any kind of historic recreation.
And that's completely understood do some homework on the Bowie knife their should be enough info to explain my point that a Bowie is very well known design...didn't meen to be difficult on this I've admired the Bowie since I was a kid and was just trying to get the info straight gd luck to you're search for knowledge and God bless👍

If Google Translate is to be trusted, you are commenting about the orientation of the growth rings? They run with the head of the axe. That blank was a split half of the log, and I hewed the heart away. It's not ideal, because it was a small log, so they have more curvature than they should. You can see them at 00:46 in this video: ua-cam.com/video/-c1b2qEqjQI/v-deo.html

You have done quite a job getting it running so well. I like the wipers, better than vacuum style on a hill for sure.
