Recent work, February 2018

Post by thegingerninja.abq »

Hey guys and gals!

I hope you are all doing well. I had few minutes, and a heap of determination to add some long overdue pictures of current work.

Thank you very much!

Cody

Look great. You are not making knives now, just handles and sayas, right?

That saya goes really well with the Kochi handle.

Just handle and saya work for the time being. But, I am piecing together some equipment, and am hoping to build my forge soon. Thanks for checking 😉

And I agree, the burnt chestnut handles are begging for a matching toasted saya.

Hey Jeff! I'm always spinning plates, which should give you an idea of how backed up I am 😅. However, I'm getting close to opening books again for new clients. This time I'm going to try a different strategy to hopefully better manage the workload. I'm going to first announce open books on Instagram, then here and Facebook. It'll be first come first serve, and I'm going to try to only take on enough work for 3-4 months at a time. At least that's the plan.

Thanks! Cody
