Blade scroungeing
« on: February 23, 2014, 06:24:58 pm »
Hey guys,

I'd been wanting to try out a tom brown tracker type knife for bowmaking, but being a broke father, shelling out the money for one was ill advised.

I give you the POSTracker.



Weight up front for chopping to rough out profiles and a good drawknife section for more delicate work. AND it's shiney.

While I have your attention, would anyone want to see some traditional fancy baskets I've been making?

Cool knife, you make it? Sounded like you couldn't afford one so you were gonna make, but the packing peanuts confused me. dp

Lol the packing peanuts were the only clean white backdrop I could find in the house.  Made this from a stainless chef knife.

I can't stand this suspense, I am a basket case waiting for the baskets!
