I took a class at NewEngland School of Metalwork and got to learn some new ways to make knives and some new blade styles.Here you will also find some of my more recent work.It is tough to judge the size of some of these so I guess I will have to start putting in something for size comparison.The first 3 on the right side of the page are actually quite small blades.
