Hello Slingshot Forum friends!!!
Here's my latest natural slingshot, carved out from a wild olive wood fork (Olea europaea) and finished with linseed oil and natural beeswax. The blades on the pictures were given to me as part of a trade by my friend, master forger and knifemaker Miguel Laranjeira. Here is his Facebook page https://www.facebook.com/belzeboocrafts and his blogspot http://belzeboocrafts.blogspot.com/2019/
These are really awesome blades, sharp as a blade can get. I've been using the bigger one on the pictures for my carvings and it has been great to work with such a quality knife. Besides these latest ones, I have also two spoon carving knifes (with the curved blade) from Miguel. They're fantastic and they carve very well through every type of wood, although they're not my most used. He's a fine metal artisan and an excellent guy to deal with (I think I've pass to him the slingshot addiction. Let us see
)
Thanks for watching!!
Best regards ...Q
