Hi All,
This was my First practice plate. about 5 months ago.
Although I used some of the Forum's Members Practices I Actually redrew them myself to get the Feel of How
they went about getting to the actual design, Spine First then some filling etc. So if it looks like Your Work!!
Please Don't be Offended.
The Second is A hunter I did for a Very Good Friend, And Yes! He is still my Friend After I gave Him This.
Ya All must Realise that We Dont have any Engravers of Note! in Africa. I have Found that even in the Knifemaking Fraternity it is not very well Accepted. Education I think is in Order.!! At Our Last Guild Show I had Some Engraved Knives and Folders, And A Woman Remarked that it looks FEMENISTIC, Doesn't belong on a Knife.
