Stone & Steel Forge

Eyeball Knife sold at auction for Green Hill Sportsmen's Association's 2019 Guns N More fundraiser.

This is a spec knife we did a few years ago to see how natural seasoned antler and synthetic Ivorex would look together, separated by a tapered ebony spacer. Nickle silver fittings and mosaic pins seemed appropriate as did the red liners and epoxy. The knife is slim, very lively in the hand, and scary sharp. Photo by the lovely Mrs. Anderson.

Roadkill Nessmuk The knife was started with a small box of elk antler from a road kill, and this was really the only usable piece. The blade came from a short length of commercial band saw steel retrieved from the scrap pile at a Virginia sawmill. I had wanted to do a Nessmuk-style blade for some time and this was the perfect combination of components. Of course, Her Artsyness made the pics just for you. Enjoy!

Someone referred to one of these knives as 'art' and I feel privileged to hear that, as art has always been of interest to me. I believe our greatest gift to be shared with the world is the expression of the 'art' that's been placed in each of our hearts. I hope you enjoy the knives - especially the recipients - but I hope also that you will embrace and express the art that is yours alone. We're all anxious to see what you'll do!
