Not turning related but all means to an end init?
I got myself some cheap Poundland blades to play with and had a little play today.
This is so much different to engraving wood which is much more forgiving on the gravers.
Too deep and it's buggered, no second chances here so it deserves a good bit of practice.
Results below don't be kind because I know it's crap but wait and see how it improves as I gain experience init?
At a pound for 3 knives I can afford to makes a few mistakes and find what looks best init?
The writing on the blade is a hunters prayer but I couldn't get it all on yet, will do next time on a Hunters Knife init.
Heavenly father, to you I pray,
A majestic deer may come my way.
Let my aim be straight and true,
This my Lord, I pray to you.
A swift clean kill is all I ask,
Take his spirit swift and fast.
For his last breath should not be,
One of pain or agony.
Let his soul, Come to Thee,
To roam your heavens,wild and free.
