Anyone interested in seeing the evolution of these knives? I took pics during the process.

There is 2 different high fence. 1 small and one big! Mine was free range in the big pen and was not a breeder buck. Why does it have to be twisted around??

After some hand sanding down to 400 grit it was time for the heat treat. I don’t have the equipment to heat treat nor really the inclination since I’m not a big fan of burns, and 1500 degrees burns real deep real fast. So I sent the blades to Texas to my friend Cowboy Szymanski who is a professional knife maker and was on Forged and Fire Season 1. I knew I had about a month or longer before Cowboy could get to them because hey.... the man has his own projects and a business to run. So I got to thinking about the little things that would make it cooler. I came up with two, so I asked Cowboy to clay my blades for a hamon and I needed to come up with a bad ass logo with a turkey integrated. I’ve always used the BC in a circle for my makers mark and acid etched them into the steel. This time I was going to do it differently. So I sat down at the computer and spent a couple hours designing a logo with the BC mark on it. I sent it to a guy in Florida who made me some stencils for a fee. Here’s the logo.
