Mike Hr had mentioned to me that you were doing some really nice work,,,this piece is even better that that... Keep up the good work,,,
Almost every knife that is not damascus that leaves my shop is mirror polished and alot of them are used in the field. If youi would like to try a little experiment grind some high carbon steel to about a 120 grit finish. doesn't even have to be knife shaped. Then mirror polish the other side,,,If you live in a humid area just keep and eye on the piece now and then and watch for rust..if you live live an arid area like I do mist a little water on both sides now and then and watch and see....
