Welding

I am now offering welding services! I can do light or heavy duty steel work, if your interested, email me (Mail@eagleeyeforge) with a description of the job, (and preferably pics), and I can let you know an approximate rate for the job. I cannot do aluminum or high precision steel work (I will be able to do precision when I get my needed tig equipment).

Catch up (part 2)

"persuasion" weighin in at 1 lb 5 oz, she's a light weight, but very feisty. Great for a fight, light enough to move fast, but heavy enough to do some real damage. 21.5" oal and the head is a 6" piece of 1" pipe, riveted on with three 1/4" steel rivets. It's goin nowhere.






My new leather cutting knife. Burlap micarta and my all new "kryptonite" pins.

the handle in the dark, when the kryptonite pins really get interesting.


Handforged decorative candy dish, key catcher, change holder, etc.

Another handforged spoon. Mild steel, with a decorative curly maple scale on the handle.




Thats about it for now, I'll try and do better as time goes on. Stephen.

Catch up (part1)

So, it was brought to my attention recently that I'd been falling behind on keeping up with this blog, sorry guys, I'm just not doing good at keeping up with all these different things, my website's almost as bad. But I'll go ahead and take this chance to catch you guys up on some of my recent projects. curly maple

Tomahawk, mild steel head with welded in 1084 bit. 14" Curly maple handle.


Handforged spoon. Mild steel head and handle, forged seperately and riveted together with 4 brass pins.

Small edc's

Making the most of my week off at work. Starting a small batch of 3 edcs, 2 of 1084 and 1 of 1095 (gonna get a hamon). I've got the first two handled, and the handles shaped. Still gotta do the finish sanding and the other final touches. But here's a glimpse of them so far. The 1095 should be HT'd tomorrow night.

Just finished up this Lady's edc for my sisters graduation. 

Homemade pink micarta handle. 

Handmade 1084 blade. 

And a leather sheath with a handworked rose design. 

...

Specs: 

oal - 5 1/2" 

Blade - 2 1/2"

Handle - 3"

Copper danglers.

I was at an artist blacksmith hammer-in a few weeks ago, and saw a demonstration on copper fold forming. Thought it was interesting, so I made these two abstract copper pieces for my sisters to hang from their car mirror.

Etching

I always love etching a patternwelded knife. It's like a modern day alchemy. You put it in blank and boring... Pull it out a little later, and it's changed amazingly.
