New Boots – Laila

Wearing these new boots today – pretty comfy except that my toes went a bit numb over lunch today. You can’t really see in the photo but they sort of change colour – purple to green and gold.

This pair are now ready to harden I like to have a few to make it worthwhile heating the oven but 2 will have to do this time #nzknifemaker #damascussteel #kitchenknives #twisteddamascus #multibardamascus

Here is how that fork would look in a darker wood. This one clears my backlog of forks. So if you are interested PM me. #nzknifemaker #damascussteel #kitchenknives #mysca #lochac #medieval

Again with the knife and fork sets. For some reason this one is camera shy and I either get the shape or the pattern #mysca #lochac #damascussteel #medieval #kitchenknives #nzknifemaker

Here we go again welding bolsters onto 8 inch chef knife. When I first saw this being done by #salemstraub I knew I needed to learn to do it. This is the 4th attempt and results have been a little mixed so far I think I have sheared the weld while working close by. The blade is a 6 bar composite and at this stage it is around 10 mm thick it will be forged to shape and thinned a little but to get a good pattern from all of the bars I need to grind pretty deep. Anyhow lets roll those dice and see how this goes. #nzknifemaker #damascus #kitchenknives #twisteddamascus

File work roughed out ready for heat treat these al have a lot of metal to come off yet otherwise they will develop splotches in etch. #nzknifemaker #lochac #mysca #kitchenknives #damascussteel #medieval #wip

Making some more forks. This is how i set rhem up to mark them out. I use the height guage to create a plane parallel to the surface plate and mark a centerline then I mark lines to work to. It takes a bit of adjusting to get the center in the right place but it is better to do it now while there is plenty of material. #nzknifemaker #kitchenknives #lochac #damascussteel #mysca
