This is Randy Jr. the steel smashing mastermind behind the amazing damascus patterns you see on my work. hThis is a first weld on a stack of steel.

 

Hey Guys. I have been sorta quiet the last few weeks. Between Taxes, and working on the new house and shop. as well as trying to finish a large order. Things have been pretty hectic as of late. Of the 3 the only one I managed to complete was the TAXES!! Yet Im still going and gona get R done. One way or the other!!!


Last week when Painting at the new house. I pulled something in my lower back and after a few days it was not getting better and if anything was hurting even more!! So Monday I went to the chiropractor.. He was surprised by the Xrays.and started working on me.. I have been there a few times now and am almost able to walk and stand normal again.


On a side note. something a little more positive. I was finally able to secure more of the amazing Musk Ox horn and replenish my stash. Last year about this time I made the largest Musk Ox horn purchase I have even made. and the package was lost in the mail. Was sad both to loose so much cash but even moreso to loose so much awesome horn!!! ?? who knows where it ended up?

This year We are doing the shipping and deal a little at a time. and the first package arrived!! Its a good thing.

Im also going to start or re start the mammoth tooth stabilization and should have some new stuff by mid summer!!

I just wanted to say HI and let everyone know whats up with me. God willing I should be back to normal and back in the shop very soon!

 

Outstanding..... The shortage of knife porn has been MOST UN-NERVING!!!

 

Ok Guys. I HAD to take a picture or 10 to share of this one for Chuck!

Integral boning knife in progress! Predator pattern goodness!!!

 

Randy that is ridiculously sweet!

 

Thanks Jim. Yea. I about shat myself when I etched it. I knew it was gona be good. But its off the hook amazing! Jr never ceases to amaze and impress with his damascus!!

 

Randy Jr never ceases to amaze! Here is a new test pattern he made me. He said when I grind it the pattern should look sorta like a spider web.. and as you see, the kid has CRAZY skills. to be able to see whats inside a bar B4 its even ground!! \

 

that pattern is so badass!

 

Do you have a name for this pattern yet Randy? Just curious what you're calling it.

-Steve

 

That is one VERY talented young man you have there Randy!

 

This kid is always trying new stufff. Believe it or not hes not happy with this one and is going to take what he learned from this and try it again a bit different.

Always pushing the envelope here is another TEST pattern its a feather variation! and I gota say. I LIKE IT!

180mm Nakiri western handle. This one will be available sooner then later. Unless someone contacts me to secure it B4 I get her finished out!

Thanks and God Bless
