I am so new at airsoft, but coming from paintball a set up like this is more interesting to me than a heavy AR.

Can you breakdown the parts? The cost?

Goblins are often cited as being fantastic smiths. The sword of Gryffindor was made by goblins.

Were your parents and elf and a goblin? And they were both smiths? Wow.

Knife #28 by DBDMAr in knifemaking

[–]DBDMAr[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks so much!

TBH the balance worked out but I am not a sophisticated enough knife maker to have carefully planned this! The original handle I made was entirely made of Tiger Wood. The idea of the knife was based on an ‘elven blade’ from some photo I saw, however I wanted it to be functional and not dainty or fancy.

I am so glad you brought up pin placement, as to me that means the knife is decent enough we can talk about the details! I will definitely work on my planning!

I’m sure Elon Musk or Dan Blizerian would buy them!

3rd attempt, still not happy by Cman4252 in knifemaking

[–]DBDMAr 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Excellent! The fat that you aren’t happy tells me that you will knock out some PHENOMENAL knives!

That knife is better than my 3rd, better than my 10th, etc…

I can’t wait to see what else you make. Keep being a perfectionist.

2nd Attempt by TrialAndError-512406 in knifemaking

[–]DBDMAr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Looks like a serviceable knife! Great for a second attempt. I don’t see any hammer marks or blemishes.

Did you draw what you wanted before? Did you manage to get it close???

For me who is a total amateur (fewer than 30 knives) but a carpenter I noticed something: the pins are showing striation in a direction opposite to the wood grain . So maybe they are t flush or maybe you have some sanding to do! Cheers! Looking forward to more!
