I Got Me a Knife!

June 18, 2019 By SandRa Timmins Leave a Comment

He asked me if I wanted a knife.

I said, yeah, I’d like a knife.

What kind of knife? He asked.

Oh, a cleaver would be handy, I said, to you know, cut up pumpkin and cut up slices etc…

I got me a knife.

You call that a knife?

Take that pumpkin!

Nah, I call it a cleaver..an industrial cleaver.

If you didn’t know, my husband is a full time blacksmith. You can find his amazing creations on his website here; Industrial Fusion. It’s how we live, so it really pays to support him whilst you’re not buying my plants (which I don’t have at this time of year, I forgive you) dried herbs and tinctures!

Cleaver made by Industrial Fusion
Boom!

The whole piece is hand forged out of spring steel with an epoxy infused cord wrap. She ‘aint light but she does make short work of a pumpkin (cuts a pizza pretty good too!).

Nice touch with the touchmark

Touchmark there of JT (Josh Timmins), like a signature on a masterpiece!

Excuse the goose pimples! I have his touchmark too~ (Does that make me a masterpiece? Hmm, I am of my own making, his touchmark is a detail on my own canvas).

So let me run you by that again, Josh Timmins designs at industrialfusion.co.nz Go check it out.

(Promise my next post will be about herbs!)
