Spears Posted January 25, 2011 Share Posted January 25, 2011 Your finishing (sanding, buffing, blending,etching, etc) is some of the best I have ever seen. I don't make blades but I like to examine the fine workmanship. Especially when blending flush one material to another without hardly evidence of a crack or line between the two. You do that extremely well. Thanks for so many pictures. Spears. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nonjic Posted January 28, 2011 Share Posted January 28, 2011 lovely knife. I appreciate a flat, flat grind. (I mean, errrm, really really flat ) . Now thats flat! I thought I could flat grind, then had a play with a Howard Clark bowie, and I realised what 'MS' quality really meant. And I realised I gotta practice, lots! Seamless transition between the guard and handle, now thats a tricky one to pull off when they sand at completly different rates! That knife looks like its doing 100 mph standing still!
