    Critique Request Knife I did.

    Thank you. Yeah I’ve been seeing a lot of people doing spyderco knives. I plan on getting one soon and trying one out. I even noticed some guys selling copper and brass scales for certain models making them easier to engrave.

    Scrimshaw: Second attempt at scrimshaw

    Amazing job on this. You can see your background of being an artist come through with the softness of the edges but still being able to see the individual hairs on the chin and roundness on the eye.

    Critique Request Knife I did.

    Thank you. I did disassemble the knife and screwed it down through the holes to a block of wood. I did find a steeper face angle seems to help it’s just trading off a lil on seeing what I’m doing.

    Critique Request Knife I did.

    Thank you. I think you’re absolutely correct it’s always when I’m doing a tight turn. I think I’m trying to take out to much on a single pass. I’m working on some other stainless stuff and I am taking lighter cuts and trying to pay attention.

    More practice.

    Looks great to me. This post was a great read for someone like me that has really never tried this style. I was looking to see if you implemented what Marcus was suggesting. But i can’t tell on my phone it’s to blurry when I zoom in.

    No I only have a few carbide gravers, and only one 105*, so I had to stop and sharpen every time it happened. I found taking lighter passes seem to help with being able to go longer in between breaking off the tip. But I’m also pretty new to this maybe someone can answer this better.

    Critique Request Just finished this.

    Thank you. I’d be lying if I said I knew how I exactly did it. I just adjusted my Lindsey to hit as soft as I could get it. Then just did what felt right as far as line weight.

    Thank you. Maybe coming from tattooing for 35 years, I can try to have something different but the same at the same time.
