The Knife Thread

[threedogs]

My third helmet has arrived only three to go,
A roman style with a red brush top and a pointed version of this one,
and one with a pomel on top. They display well imo

Once again I am not a knife person, but these fine specimen the neighbour gave me today look quiet cool. Blade is darmascus something, and the handles are bone something lol. He did tell me a technical name of whatever they're built from but he lost me quickly. One of his mates makes them.
The silver knife all the way on the left is a cheapo but super sharp. The other too are apparently very high end... So he says.

very nice the yellow one is bone stained yellow with brass spacers
the other looks like buffalo horn and burr walnut with file work on the spine.
Dont think the small one is Seki city or San Mai damascus,
Did he mention how many layers as you can see the larger knife has less layers


Another mini medieval helmet arrived called a pigface very pointed. Ill get a pic of all together
tomorrow. Still need to buy 3 more to complete the set

Heres the helmets, I like them and thats all that matters eh



Looking at your knives again Eric I think that small one may be Seki City steel[damascus]

The big chopper on the left looks like a Forsyth brand knife. Made in Tasmania


Never underestimate the power of the tap, let it flow through you.

Anyone got any new goodies lately?

nah sadly no. but if you can find a Colt Alamo bowie with the
stag handle and star in the pommel Id be interested about 20" AO
Playing with them as you do I reckon the best is the Gil Hibben toothpick
Hands down
