Paring Knife

Here is a paring knife I made recently from O-1 tool steel and linen Micarta handles with brass and copper mosaic pins. The blade was hollow ground using a 10" contact wheel and is a very thin blade for paring.

Bottle Opener Pry Tool and Keychain Prytool

Here are a few things that I have made for key chain carry recently from O-1 tool steel.

Forged Sterling Silver Hoop Earrings

Here is a pair of earrings that I made for my Etsy store recently. I have forged these earrings to create their shape, texture and ear wires. I will make some more variations of these in the upcoming weeks. These earrings measure approximately 1.5" in diameter.

Arch Earrings

Here are a couple of earrings I made that are similar to a design I saw somewhere in a book. I have made both of them in sterling silver and both designs have a 5 mm diameter onyx bead. The dark coil that is added on one set is made from 26 gauge oxidized sterling silver. These earrings are approximately 2 inches long and I have them listed for sale on my Etsy store.

More Bottle Openers

I have been making more of these bottle opener pry tools for my Etsy store. Currently I am making them on a made to order basis, but will be stocking up more as I get time. These, like the others are O1 precision ground bar stock that is 1/8" x 3/4" x 3".

Pry Bar Bottle Opener

Here is a pry bar bottle opener that I made as a custom order for a customer on my Etsy store. The bottle openers I make are usually 3" long and have holes drilled to lighten the tool but not this time. This tool measured 4" long and only features a lanyard hole. It is made from O1 precision ground bar stock.

Thuja cones in sterling silver

Here are some earrings and a pendant that were made from the cones of a tree known as Thuja or Arborvitae, specifically these are from the Thuja occidentalis, which you can read more about here. These cones were used to cast these one of a kind pieces in sterling silver using the 'lost wax' process. All jewelry that I make with these is unique, as a different cone is used in each piece which accounts for small differences in size and shape.
