Fresh new refractory, burner tune up and exterior refurb for the Dragon. Experimenting with a castable floor and kaowool wall/lid. Much more efficient than before and stable at 3 psi. Refractory products courtesy of my buddy and thermal genius Eric Armstrong. Haven't forged in it yet but I'm looking forward to it soon. Will post some videos......

Here is the perfect gift for Father's Day, belated Mother's Day, or just a gift to yourself. The 11 inch blade is forged from W1 series round stock and is finished with a hand rubbed satin finish. The top clip is sharp. The guard is 416 series stainless steel. The handle is ergonomically contoured from a single block of Tiger Maple, stained and finished with Danish Oil. The package is complete with a custom fitted sheath, designed for multi position carry, from Rowe's Leather. This knife is light and fast. As comfortable on display as well as hog hunting. Pm me if interested. Thanks for looking.

Here's a bench shot of a full tang hunter I just completed. Notice the tapered tang which lightens up the handle and creates great balance. More work, but it makes a much better knife. The steel has an acid etch finish and the handle is spalted maple burl.
