SJS thank you very much! I never tried to make the hollow grinding on a knife! Actually I am using a 14' file to remove more material and keep the grinding flat, working with files is very nice despite the time spent... And argentina has very good prices, I buy deer horns from there ;) Bacha.

One day I hope that I can buy or make one belt grinder like yours, they are really clean shaped and appears to be very comfortable for knife making. I do almost everything with my Bosch grinder, the shape, grinding... only the finishing, that I do by hand with sandpaper. This Bosch is mine: In the beginning it's a bit difficult to evenly remove metal from the knife blanks, but with some practice you can do a lot of thigs with few tools. Bacha.

Hello Steel lovers, I brought to you some photos of my last finished knife. It's a kitchen knife made from SAE 1070 steel and cedar on the handle. Hope you like it, it's very simple for my own use and I remove material of only one side os the blade, here we call it "unilateral grinding". Photos: Hope you like it, Bacha.

Nice!! I didn't know this material, very nice work, thanks. Bacha.

I liked both! But I prefer the balance of the short one... The design seems to be very comfortable too. I think that the short one with Tero Tuf finish would be very pretty! Thanks for sharing, Bacha.

I need to try something like this... It's a pretty cool knife. Reminds me the Muela Kodiak! I love the shape of these knives. thanks for sharing Bacha.

NICE one! I would carry one of that... Beautiful quench line. Thanks for sharing. Bacha.

Thank you very much John! Thanks JME1149, the alone pin appearing is just a case of esthetics. There are 2 other pins under the wood and some pits on the internal part of the handle and scale wood. I used 10min epoxi to glue everything together, I think it's very strong but only time and use will give me the answer! I do appreciate your words, thanks! It was made to be abused ;) Thanks Jimmy!!

That's all for today, hope you like it. I made this one for myself, so it's very simple and useful. Thanks, Bacha.

Hello steel lovers, It has been difficult to find find time to make knives. This one I've finished today: Steel: SAE 1070 Handle: Canafístula wood 28cm of total lenght: 16cm of blade and 12 of handle. The difference of color was made by eletrocorrosion and the darkness was made with perma blue. Photos:

Perfect folding knife. I saw 3k US$ knives for selling that were not a fraction of yours. Thanks for sharing, Bacha.
