KY Blue IV-D
« on: May 12, 2010, 12:33:32 am »
I like this one. The horns arnt as pronounced as I'd like because i lost some off one on my 2nd primary stitch flake, also note the small divet on the base of the pummel same flake did that. I also really need to slow down on my blade work so i can get a better flake pattern. I have an idea for that.

Very nice work Jesse,by the way was that you hide glue left on the stove at the shop.If so I put it in the fridge in the archery shop so it wouldn't spoil like the last did. ;) :) I like knives,all kinds of knives. ;)

that's some sweet coloration in that rock.  i still like the shape of your first danish dagger the best.

Very cool work. Love both of them!
