#Micarta delivery from @kurzknives
Decided to try and make some san mai today. I am really not equipped to do it, but thought I would try. My forge and anvil are pretty small. It was a failure, but a fun experience. Some welded, some didn’t. Still looks pretty cool.
Time to grind some bevels.
Finally got some shop time. Took a little break to do some work around the house. Tapering tangs and documenting the process for YouTube.
Today’s #throwbackthursday my grandfather Dale G. Wood.
And my other son, Layne has been watching @alecsteele as well and forged his first bottle opener.
Got my picture in from @knifeimages that I had taken while attending Bladeshow west.
So, my son Ty has been watching a lot of blacksmithing videos from @alecsteele and wanted to give it a try tonight. He completed is first project, a bottle opener.
Today butt shot.
Final video in the Bill Wood remake series is live on YouTube. Go check it out if you are interested.
