Good Job!
Try your hand at crafting different types of Handle pins, and try to think about how much you can sell them for. If I can afford it, I will buy, and I can assure you I am not alone. Advertise them here and you'll have a lot of people willing to buy that stuff.

Great Job.
What is the blade thickness and what steel do you use?
Your Mosaic pins look great.

Hi vjisaac, what is the Weight of this cleaver? It must be heavy as it has to go deep into meat.

That's an enviable job.
If this your first project ( I guess not)

Some spec on the blade please. Thickness, metal, any tempering done etc.
