Jalapeno induced Nightmare

Posted on January 14, 2012 at 12:04 4 Comments

Deep in the bowels of the earth, the mad mighty dwarfs toil at their hidden forges.  Souls of spiders, dragonfly spirits and small flightless birds are used to create mystic steels.  These magical metals form a companion fit for a Queen!  A companion named Joe???   Oh boy, I've got to stop eating jalapenos before going to bed.…

It snowed today

Posted on December 31, 2011 at 16:11 6 Comments

We got 4 inches in a few hours then - poof - it quit.  After getting the walks shoveled, I had to play with the dog and take some pictures.  Isis the wonder dog ( you wonder what she's going to do next ) loves the snow.  We play catch with tennis balls until they get lost under the snow, then she catches snowballs I toss to her.  Later, we watch the squirrels eat peanuts that my wife has put out.  The little house is my wife's sunshed where she grows flowers in the winter.  She has a cherry…

The Christmas Catalog

Posted on November 20, 2009 at 23:22 0 Comments

Oh boy, I just received the new Shepherd Hills Christmas catalog! There are some really beautiful knives in there. I’m not talking about the great array of mammoth ivory or pearl or exotic handle materials – there are some new designs and new treatments.

If I were to design a knife, it would have a Cigar Band shield of some… Continue

Hi Rusty....Thanks for the comments on the damascus hunter and chef knife. Both of these blades came from Alabama Damascus. The chef blade is from a 5100 alloy material and based on the effort & time it took to get it polished and after completion, sharpening it to my satisfaction, leads me to believe it would be a good material for a field knife as well.

Have a great evening!

Hey, Rusty!

Congratulations on being a "Featured Member." I really like the photos of your knives. I may have to steal some of your ideas. I especially like some of the critters that you pose with your knives.

Good show, my friend!
