To see a World in a Grain of Sand  And a Heaven in a Wild Flower  Hold Infinity in the palm of your hand  And Eternity in an hour - William Blake ***** I have been blessed with many gifts. And I am further blessed with the opportunity just serve you and others with those simple gifts. ***** @borneinfire #mastermetalsmith #knifeporn #handmadeintheusa #knifecollector #knifecommunity #artknife #designer #veteranowned (at Born In Fire, Knife and Tool Company)

A very special Little Bastard project underway. Multiple temper lines, multiple hamon. I've been working on techniques, with a focus towards a look of a Japanese ink wash depiction of flowing waters. I'm pretty happy with this work in progress. *** #mastermetalsmith #madeintheusa #hamon #differentialtemper #disabledveteran #designer #customknives #badassery https://www.instagram.com/p/BrVfr1_BZUk/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=hjn9wn9b26bv

This is for the few who understand that we will be remembered for what we do in life, not the showy crap, but what is at the heart of what we do, even after it is glossed over. Temper line and hamon showing through on a Frankenpiranha. *** @borneinfire #frankenpiranha #outdoorlife #Bushcraftasfuck #antipopculture #mastermetalsmith #madeintheusa #badassery https://www.instagram.com/p/BrTpTW1hS6t/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1nuc4wmmpupos

A special Little Bastard with a beautiful blue-black finish. Removable grips are Koa burle. Every blade is sharpened to 4,500 diamond grit then stropped to a level equal to any scalpel. ***** @borneinfire #grailknife #edcknives #mastermetalsmith #designer #madeintheusa #disabledveteran # (at Born In Fire, Knife and Tool Company) https://www.instagram.com/p/BpfvQWJnzgQ/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=18nssyanl3q6n

"Flowing Waters." Just a test etch to give you an idea of the hamons hiding under the scratches. **** @borneinfire #differentialtemper #hamon #knifecommunity #mastermetalsmith #disabledveteran #customknife #veteranowned #madeintheusa (at Born In Fire, Knife and Tool Company) https://www.instagram.com/p/BpCoCnyhQ7Q/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=p2zd5dt6k3fc
