The blades will be chisel ground butt he cutting edge will have a curve to it. The tangs will be tapered and the blade will be left with a rustic appearance of the carbon build up from heat treat. Im excitted to see them done and how they sell!!

New logo/touch Mark

So I've decided to redesign my knife logo. I've always wanted to use a touch Mark instead etching because it is longer lasting and more permanent. My vision for my business is to build my business as a Jewellery and knife making business. This "M" will be my signature on all my pieces: knives and eventually Jewellery. It's bold and simple but stream lined. The former makers mark will remain for letter heads and business cards. 

Push daggers

In between the Pooley daggers, I had an order for a push dagger. A first, so all is a new learning experience. Today I heat treated them and drew the temper. Now to fit handle scales.
