    You're on a roll! No doubt these will all sell.

    Is that last one a chisel grind or just super thick stock? That's one mean looking plunge, gives some great contrast.... can't wait to see that finished.

    Wow! I can't imagine what goes into creating one of these beauties but I definitely like what I've seen in this thread. I'm always looking for new hobbies to pick up, might have to add this to my list.

    A few that I just finished up. All need the final grind done for clean up and the edge put on but other than that are finished. Now to make some cool sheaths for everything!

    These are beautiful even though I don't like the tanto-styled knives.

    This thread has made me look into making my own because I can and great knives are out of my price range.

    So I started playing with Google Sketch up 2-3 days ago and so far it seems to be clicking with me really good. I made up a model of a belt grinder I would really like to make. What do y'all think?
