Not Your Average Cooper

My greatest fear is thst when AI takes over, it will all be run by Spotify's AI

All done with this little guy. Lizard skin inlay for the sheath. The knife is 304 layers of crushed w ladder pattern damascus with butterscotch micarta handles. I like this one a lot!

What do yall think? Sharp enough?

The issue there is that making folding knives requires an entirely different set of skills, tools, and time. None of which are exactly in my wheelhouse. I know quite a few makers that do, however. I'd be happy to show you some. From low end $50 budget knives to literally $4000 folders.

Most recent knife all finished up. Little hand forged skinner in 304 layer crushed W Ladder pattern damascus with vintage butterscotch micarta handles. I really like this one! Can't wait to start the sheath!

Latest knife build. Hand forged mini kukri from 80crv2. Love how this one turned out. Can't wait to make the sheath!

A great set of knives for throwing! This design is known as the Northstar and they are made for the No-Spin technique, but work well for just about any style of throwing. Available on www.bullseye-blades.com

I'm currently mentoring an 18 year old kid to try to help him out of his rough upbringing... and I'd like to take this moment to apologize to my father for how goddamn frustrating I must have been at 18. Holy shit teenagers are a pain in the ass.

Yeah that one hurt. He was cool af 😞 rest in peace

A hand tooled and sewn dog collar I made for a friend of mine. Don't do a ton of collars and this is the fanciest I have done by far! What do yall think?
