A blog of my personal experiences in Blacksmithing, Knifemaking, Wood Working, Photography, old tools and tool making as well as my random thoughts. Tuesday, January 02, 2007. This is a Knife I made for another knifemaker, every year I do atleast a few KITH drawings ( Knife In The Hat ) where several knifemakers make a knife, draw names and swap 'em. Making a knife for a knifemaker is always a good challenge I think it pushes me harder. Posted by Jens Butler at 2:24 PM. Fairfield, Iowa, United States.

Http:/ www.digitalmedievalist.com/urls/celtmss.html. Http:/ www.proscribe.co.uk/history/manusc01.htm. So I've been using these designs as a starting point for decorating the spoons I'm making too. It's painstaking work with a micro graver and a jewelers loupe, but really fun and challenging. Posted by Jens Butler at 11:33 AM.

Ok Here is a sweet little blade I just finished for one of the guys at work, Troy, our in-house deer hunting guru. The blade is 1095 with a subtule but well defined hamon line, handle is dymonwood a commercial produced stabilized and dyed laminate wood. The colors of which happen to match his blackpowder rife stock.
