Power Wagon Registry

Made this knife at home for my p.w. To keep it in the truck with some of my tools...5160 steel I hope..I heat treated as so...she holds an edge so far after chopping that block of hard wood and some cardboard

Did you make that out of a section of truck leaf spring? That's just about the manliest thing I've ever seen. Where's Tim Allen when you need him? Seriously nice work man!

thanks..yep truck spring...alot of work but it was fun....

THAT is wayyyyy cool !!! I am a HUGE knife guy. 5160 ROCKS for a knife blade. It is a steel that can cut other steels, literally !!!

Not 5160 but they used to have a video of 5160 doing the exact same thing.

X2 on the manly comment! So cool! I'm guessing extremely time consuming

thanks guys...twin i watched most of Miller bros videos they make some excellent blades..i cut bunch blanks from a leaf spring from a n.y.c garbage truck..was at the dump at their mechanics shop took apart the leafs from a complete pack they didnt need.. heat treat is important im still learning ...2wagons i took apart a treadmill and took the motor so i can make a 2x72 belt grinder...angle grinder a files take too much time...and bevels dont come out perfect..

Holy shit that's bad to the bone & super creative & talented . I suck.

These 2 Ontario's I have are made from 5160.







After batoning these through multiple logs with knots, they still easily shaved hair.
vvvvvvvvvvvvvvv

Twin those are nice...here's my next project...almost 7/16 inch thick

You makin' that for Paul Bunion ???

I have an Ontario knife made by Justin Gingrich, It is a Ranger Signature Series, made from 3/8" S7 tool steel. It is my most expensive knife to date @ $150.00, quite a few years ago. Don't let anyone tell you that thick knives can't be shaving sharp either. That one i have literally can curl a single piece of hair.

Nice looking knives!! Good work

thanks

BEAUTIFUL work.

You need to make a batch of choppers & etch the "POWER WAGON" logo on it & to get around the "copyright" bullshit, just etch the year of the PW of the people who buy them from you; example: 2008 Power Wagon, for mine. Just a thought, you do great work.

Thanks Twin...my first blade I tried to etch a winch hook..it came out so.so....I'd love to make some for us ..just have no time right now...here is couple I'd make over the winter...a replacement blade for my bonecollector and kitchen knife is 52100...and the chopper is o1....

LOVE me some choppers. I have quite a few. That looks almost like a competition chopper. Latest one I have been eying up is this: https://www.smkw.com/tops-el-chete-knif ... rta-handle .............Awwwww, damn you ....now i just found another !!! ........https://www.smkw.com/tops-el-chappo-cleaver

Love me some cleavers too.

nice ones...I gotta finish these blades...a lot of grinding
