I will say, you really have improved your craftsmanship over the years. The grind lines look particularly nice in this one!

Very cool work. Also the historic info you give as well. I always thought arkansas toothpick refers to double edged blades historically because in modern times its used that way, but reacently i learned from channel that deals with antique bowies that in period it wasnt so. Its nice that you seem to have lot of knowledge in history of blades you create, but also you are skilled craftsman.

That's a fine looking knife . So cool to see you make everything without needing $50k worth of shop tools and not angle grinding shapes from bar stock. You've obviously put in some time to get results like that .

Cool. Classic blade and handle type. Grinding pins flush though? Shouldn't you be peening/dome and polishing the pins? Idk it's your knife I just like the classic dome and polished pins going round the edge look and think it makes the whole "coffin" appearance more distinctive and really pop.

Nice work bro. Badass old blades those. Only done one arkansas years ago, think now i might try another soon. :) Interesting bevel jig. Double edged aren't easy to grind right , getting everything symmetrical and leaving the right amount of material etc. Do you taper the blades ? Cheers mate.
