3 Simpler Knives

Not all the knives I make are carved in some way.  These are 3 knives I forged during last years Durham Fair while being a demonstrator in the farm building.

All of these are forged from 1/8" thick 1084 bars.  The blade lengths are 6", 5 1/2", and 4".   I started forging the 1/8 bars because they are really thin and it forces be to be very precise in my hammering.  The top knife still has 3 hammer blows visible near the top of the blade where I hit too hard and couldn't grind deep enough to get rid of them with making the blade too thin.
The handles are all maple from my brother's firewood pile.  The top two are a grain pattern called Tiger Stripe, and the bottom knife is burl.
