old spring(my KITH WIP)
I finally got the beast forged out and almost ready to heat-treat, blade is approx. 18", not sure why it had to be so big....
Forged from a leaf-spring from a totaled 78 camero. I'm working on this one while also working on some commissions, so progress is slow and sporadic.
A neo-tribal seax!
I'm thinking about bone for the handle, not really sure as yet... we shall see.

Just Got My NT KITH!
WooHoo!!!!! A card was left in my mailbox yesterday that a box is ready for pickup at the local post office. Sweet just one more day. Well today I picked up the package and was surprised by the size and weight of the box. Headed out to open it up and...Hello! What's this? This thing is a BEAST! It's almost 26 inches, fits my hand well and is very sharp. Check out the work on the sheath. Apparently it had a wardrobe malfunction before it got to me, but I would never be able to tell. George put a heck of a lot of work into this piece of art. Check out these pics:
This knife was more than worth the wait. George you did an Awesome job! I can't thank you enough. And as it turns out George is just down the road a piece from me. Hope we can meet some time. Thanks for putting this KITH on Jonathon.

Two more things coming up shortly. A 4th of July Gift Swap on Bladeforums and another KITH on KnifeDogs. I love getting new knives and stuff. This is what it's all about...Swapping Stuff with other guys. Giving one of my knives and getting one of theirs. This is how I will amass my very own custom knife collection.
