- Ok. A Reflection from one of the current knives on my bench.

- Did I show this lay up of Mammoth?

- An Art Dagger from the Day

- Carved Ebony Hero and Damsel in the Castle.

More later ...

When I start dropping everything. Sloooooow downnnnnn

Gary,

Both look great the Dagger is wonderful.

About dropping things......

Kurt and Gary, I started eating with plastic Fork and Spoons and wear Steal Toe Flip flops just in case...

I saw a couple of quotes that said "I thought getting old would take much longer!", and "Getting old is not for sissy's"

Trust me I get it.

Take care,

Larry

Very nice dagger Gary
Is that a display under it ? Looks like a painting . "Midnight "


Better not get any peanut butter on my mammoth scales till after they're installed !! I'm just sayin especially ifin your dropping stuff . I hate them dayz when your hands just give up . That's one of the reasons I quit connecting steel . You CANT afford to drop big tools at them heights . Even a 3/4" bolt can do a lot of damage .

Thanks
Kurt

Hi Kurt,

That's Black Marble. The lettering is carved in.

The dagger is leaning against a wire sculpture tree with knarled roots. The knife handle rests in a cradle and the point is inlet into a piece of weathered wood.

The intent of works like these is is sit on a sideboard (instead of the Remington Bronze). The edges were blunted for the purpose.

That's a Damascus Blade, Guard, and Pommel. Acid Etched overlay.

Gary

Is that peanut butter a secret polishing medium? I know people use lard.

Dear Ben,

It's an "inactive ingredient" in the APPLE snack. Keeping the Dr. away. Hah

Gary

Nice!

Is the dagger blade damascus/etched/carved/inlaid/all of the above?
