Renders

[milSpec]

I make knives as a hobby. Normally I just trace out a blank and just go at it. I've tried to draw them before but when it comes to hand sketching, I am no artist. I'm taking a CNC machining course so I've gotten a student copy of Solidworks. I've been playing with it for a week or two trying to learn how stuff works, so I've started modeling some prototypes for me to work on. Thought Id share one. I'm still working out some things and I'm terrible at getting good renders, but I think they are finally starting to turn out nice.

Cool man. Nice work. Should we be worried next time you ask "knives only shipment?"

[milSpec]

Not unless I figure out how to get it ingame lol.

[saladFingrs]

Hahaha by the way that's not a throwing knife is it?

[milSpec]

Nah. Though I've made a few, and thrown many, this one isn't. It's a little handle heavy and the blade cross-section and tip are way too thin to take that kind of abuse.

Thats sweet man, you do any combat knives?

Eh. the one I posted would almost fall into combat knife territory if it weren't so short. Can't really think of much else it would excel at, aside from being a nice pointy object handy when plan A doesn't work. Though I'm putting together another one that might fit the category better. its practically a machete. Didn't realize the overall length till I half finished it.

That's really cool. Not bad at all for an early rendering.

Let me know if you ever get anything close to this. Probably my favorite knife of all time.
