You look for something that pulls a feeling out of you that you weren’t feeling before you looked at it.

My car got nicked yesterday, enforced letting go.

I may have been thinking too small

Seems some Enzo are much larger than I thought.

Durban easter knife show

I went to the durban easter knife show as I do every year. I helped Dewet Vanzyl solder the silver parts for the sheath of his bowie which won best art knife. I bought some maple burl which I'm not sure what I'm going to do with yet but looks awesome.

Interesting thought from Ford Hallam

Just do your work

Older work

I was looking at my shaving brush stand and realised that a lot of the things I've made for myself have similarities. This is very useful to look at as I hunt down my personal style.

When totally free from design brief or the need to sell something, I lean towards open fret work coupled with engraving.

This ties in nicely with the designs from decorative ironwork as well as my desire to explore chisel engraving/carving.
