New Guy with first two knives

Got the bug, got it bad too... built a home forge and got to work....

The first knife is my son's, made from the broken blades of a cultivator. Antler handle with paduk wood inserts. Made my own ferric chloride and etched the blade with Viking runes and Tree of Life for him.

Second blade is my own. Again antler and paduk wood handle with a thin ebony insert between the two. Blade steel is an old file. Need to work on my polishing skills some more...
