This one is the sister blade to the 1850s bowie posted earlier. In fact it was finished first, but then I decided to redo the handle scales, and make a sheath, and hold it tight for a little while… But here it is. Sleipner 6 mm thick, about 34 cm Read more…
As you may have heard, Dan Comeau who ran the popular site “dcknives.blogspot.com” has passed away in 2022. Since then his site was still running for some time, but now appears to be down. You can still find snapshots of the site in the wayback machine. But for the (likely) Read more…
