Beautiful job.
So when are you starting to sell to the DMF public?
I'm sure we could keep you busy for quite a while

One more - I've had this piece of steel in more or less this shape & rattling around in the bottom of my blacksmith box for probably a decade now, and I'm finally done putting off finishing the stupid thing.
One part of the puzzle fell into place when I scored some big scraps of walnut & birdseye maple earlier this month from construction of friends' new microbrewery/bar, and I wanted to try using both. I burned through a whole lot of cutlers rivets trying to get fancy, before realizing that - with my current skills - K.I.S.S. was the proper approach.

A friend of mine runs a big re-enactor rendezvous every year (1840s trapper era), and asked me to come out and demo blacksmithing. I was introduced there to a fun tradition called the trading blanket - think of it as Ebay, but with barter. Someone will start things off by tossing something on the blanket - a bear-fur hat or a flintlock, say - and everyone else has the chance to offer items they're willing to trade for it & sweeten their offer to compete with other bidders. When the bidding slows, the "seller" can take any offer that's on the blanket, or say no thanks and the whole thing starts again.
I traded one of my Triangleforge knives & a half-finished sheath (with a promise to finish it the next morning!) for this, an old Western Knife Co. blade from Boulder, Colorado:
It's a pretty ragged, relatively common old factory knife, and needs repair to the guard - though the edge is excellent - so it doesn't seem like a great deal at first glance. But consider: Rick Hartner, the metal sculptor who's generously opened his shop to me, used to work in the Western factory back in the era this one was likely made, so there's a small chance this one passed through his hands at the polishing station many decades back.
Even more important, my dad had one just like it. I know I borrowed it for most of my first post-Boy Scouts forays backpacking and paddling into the backcountry of Oregon & Washington, the first trips without any adults around to tell us what to do, or to pull us out of the soup if we screwed up. I remember losing & finding my dad's knife several times - once from a flipped raft in the Deschutes River - though my recollection is a little hazy on whether I ever found it that last time it got away from me.
When I pick up this knife, I'm transported back to those trips on whitewater rivers all over the Northwest, or long trips on foot through the Cascades, or skiing & camping for days above timberline on the north side of Mt. Hood. I think of the people who introduced me to those things, and remember that I have an obligation to pass those things along to someone else.
Knife for knife, it probably wasn't a great swap. But considering that I got a time machine out of the deal, I'm going to consider it a better than even trade.

BTW..the s/o is checking out a job with Kershaw. This could get interesting!
