Very nice Jake, I'm getting close to having enough to pay for one. Makes the wait even more painful.

ANNOUNCEMENT:

Im starting 2 puukko's next week, with around 4" blades, and handle materials ill deside with the buyer.

Here's the fun part, i need some parts from USG, and i have seen that few SF members are interested in my puukko's. So the other will go with an exhange of some parts from USG, and other will be sold starting at 100 euros.

The one im exhanging will be quite basic, and the other will be up to the buyer, and the price will be determined that what he/she want's on the handle.

So, PM me if you are interested

Im bumping (MY) old thread back to map, this is done by showing you what i have been making lately.

So, i have been little inactive past month (i think), personal life has taken some time and i have just had different things in my mind. Got a nice package from USG, and been playing whit the Litegrip since then :D

But, the reason i'm posting here is that i have started making bracelets. Waved from 316l Stainless steel, the full Persian style wave has been a success by the looks of it, and by its strength. Bracelets are starting from 20€ each, and necklaces start at 40€. Here's one bracelet i made today!

Image

And as a BTW, i have been playing around with my old spudgun that i fitted with AR-15 grip and 30kv ignition, but im not posting a pic from it, cause i have a better thing in my mind for that "first gunpost" :D
