No. 47, 49 and 50..
Lots has been happening in the shop despite the SC heat that is setting in for the summer. Been chipping away at the pile of blanks and finally reached the end of this run. No. 47 and No. 49...
Summer is coming.. or upon us I guess.
The Cap Maulers are have been made. The first two are out of high-carbon dat'mascus because it's all I had on hand, so here they are. I will be sending the drawing off for a run out of D2 along with the new Dashi-Pry Bars and BOC/BOC Mod. II's.
No. 40/41/42
No. 40 thru. 42 are finished.
No. 38 is finished.
Well the latest one which happens to be No. 38 got completed today. I got the scales on much cleaner than the last one, considering the etch happened prior to the epoxy, so sanding them afterward was out of the question to keep the pattern in tact. Still room to improve, and luckily I scored 4 more billets today, so some more patterned knives are definitely in the cards.
