Getting ready to go out to its new owner. I had a lot of fun working on this cleaver, it's a leaf spring off an army base in Jacksonville. #BladeSmith #Knifeguys4life #KnifeNut #KnifeLife #SonOfACubanRebel #OutbackFancy #CountryLivin #Chopper #GhetToDaChoppa #Cleaver

Mear words nor pictures can describe the pure and utter Joy I'm experiencing at this moment. That is all. #OutbackFancy #BladeShow #Knifeguys4life (at Cobb Galleria Centre)

Today was a milestone for me and my partner @ogreforged . We received 3 hot stamps in the mail with our logos on them.. So now, I went back into the house and pulled out everything that didn't have handles and threw it back in the forge to get a makers mark... In the spirit of learning, there were a few in the beginning that looked like doo doo... But after stamping about 100 blades in 4 hours we started getting the hang of things.. #lol Well, now to clean these guys up and get them ready.,, more pictures tomorrow. #KnifeNut #KnifeMaking #KnifeSmith #KnifeMaker #ForgeYourOwnPath #Forging #KnifeGuys4life #SurvivalPathways #SonOfACubanRebel #OutbackFancy #CountryLivin #Veteran #USMC #MyHappyPlace #MyArtIsMyHeart (at Survival Teachings LLC)

Today's inspiration comes to me from @rpm_neil ... He reminds me to do my best, because we all lead by example. To always be working towards being your best self. Be mindful, cuz you never know who's watching & learning from you. Just think, "what are you teaching?" #BeEpic #LeadByExample #BeardsAndBlades #Knifeguys4life #KnifeSmith #BladeSmith #HandForged #OutbackFancy #CountryLivin #KitchenKnife #LeafSpringSteel

Cutting it close, but squeezing in the #OgreToothpick s in and a few others... This is how we roll... #RockStars #CountryLivin #OutbackFancy #OutlawCountry #Veteran #USMC
