Yeah, both blade and the handle.

The steel was forged by the business owner the day before, a mixture of nickel and some kind of carbide (? Idk, can't remember)
Originally looked like this (not me in photo) 1000023258.jpg
Pretty fun process. Took around 7 hours from start to finish, a lot of stopping to yap in that time though.

I love it! My brother also makes knives, and I understand the amount of hard work that goes into crafting them. Just out of curiosity, how much would you sell this knife for?

Cheers, the craftsmanship isn't top notch but it was more about the experience. The owner of the workshop sells his for around $700 per knife.
 
We lost our beautiful brave talented boy a couple of weeks ago. He made it home from the UK for his last week with us. He saw whales from our balcony and ate oysters and enjoyed his last couple of beers on the Friday he got home. Never made it upstairs again but could still see the ocean from his bedroom window. Deteriorated rapidly after the massive journey and passed the following Saturday with us and his brothers by his side.
Mrs35’s life has been shattered, inconsolable to see her pain. Every day gets a little sadder and the world is emptier than the day before.

He wanted a catchup of family, friends and colleagues at one of his fave places on the Murrumbidgee at Canberra he went to a lot when he was in uni there. His ashes will be spread in the river, he requested everyone wear some camo, he was an avid hunter, and we have a sausage sizzle and beers because he loved a Bunnings sausage sizzle so we will fulfill his wishes. He left behind a grieving family, his beautiful niece and nephew that will never get to know a wonderful man as they grow. He was a Doctor of Archeology and working towards his Professorship. He passed at 36 after a near 7 year battle with brain cancer.
Vale my boy. Gone way too soon.

My sincere condolences Jimmy - that's terribly sad news.
Grief never goes away, we just learn slowly and painfully to cope with the void in our hearts.
I know it's small consolation, but all of us here are thinking of you at this toughest of times.

Very sad for you Jimmy. I can’t imagine the pain you and your family are going through. Your boy sounds like an incredible man. May he rest in peace.

This thread has seen some sad times, but also some of the most memorable interactions, both negative and positive.

J’s puny thighs and The Gimp’s unique perspectives rate as my all time favourites.

Cheers everyone and Go Pies.
