  1. Here is the finished blade, I plan on selling this piece so if anyone is interested please let me know. Constructive criticism is welcome.
  2. Wow, those look awesome. I want to try and forge one of those sometime. Good job :)
  3. I did a method similar to that while tempering, but i did not do it correctly and the blade was still slightly warped. I've fixed it now though. Here it is in its current state, getting close to being done. I'm thinking about leaving rest black and only polishing the bevels, what do you think? Or should i just polish the whole blade? Thanks for the feedback and advice. ^_^
  4. Fantastic looking, I could see these catching on. Good work!
  5. Here it is after quenching, It came out slightly warped. I tryed to correct it during tempering but it didn't straighten completely. Not sure what to do. Should i re-do my all of my heat treating or just leave it. The curve is very subtle. Not quite sure what ill do.
  6. That's a beauty, I love the the look of the hammerd in teeth on rasp knives.
  7. Update: Here's the forged blade, the edges have been trued up on the belt sander
  8. Its an iphone and the app is called SketchBookX, it was free.
  9. Here's the conceptual designs for this knife im going to be doing. The first picture i drew on my phone when I was imagining it and then the sketch i did. More pictures will be posted as I make progress. Stay tuned ^_^
  10. Thats actually pretty decent for a first knife. First one I ever made was poorly tempered and broken in half whilst being thrown into a tree.
  11. I created the coloring around the bolster with a blow torch. I think it adds an interesting and unique look.
  12. Here's a few pictures of my first attempt at forging a chefs knife. Let me know what you think and any improvements that you think could be made. http://www.iforgeiron.com/gallery/image/37451-img-1357/ http://www.iforgeiron.com/gallery/image/37450-img-1356/ http://www.iforgeiron.com/gallery/image/37452-img-1359/
