Waiting….
Flintlock Shooting
Gearing up for the upcoming rendezvous and woods walks with a little Sunday evening target practice, and there’s no better way to get in the mood than wearing some proper clothing.
Humbled to announce that I was selected for the 2021 CLA presidents choice award.
Completion of the wrought iron San Mai knife I’ve been working on.
By far the knife I’m most proud of to date. Wrought iron and 1084 San Mai, made the wrought iron myself from iron ore that I then smelted in a bloomery furnace. An ungodly number of hours poured into this knife but it was all worth it. Slotted antler handle, copper pins, ball starter, and pewter bolster.
Iron Smelting March 2020
Working down some homespun iron.
Had a great time with some great friends at Mountain Grove.
Riverborn Knives will be at the Ozark Mountain Rendezvous in Mountain Grove Missouri. See you there!
Doing some forge welding today in the newly revamped blacksmithing area.
