Artist Reply: I live on a very old place (where nearly everything on it is OLD... left over from eight generations of livin'). The Falcon candle 'houses' hung out by the mule barn... circa 1860s. The planers, from the teens-n-20s.
Those knives were crafted for me by a dear friend from Kentucky. We both love and haunt the Fainter Trails of the world, and both have a passion for the 'simpler' tools of work and survival. They were created from historical referencing (and a bit of 'mixing' of the periods from 1750 - the 1830s).
These shots came from my love... for both, my home ~ and these nods of Friendship.
Glad you enjoyed them.
