Dick L. Posted February 8, 2011 Share Posted February 8, 2011 Great job Phillip ! I really like the shape of the blade and as has been mentioned the contrast between spacers and scales. Dick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pike3e Posted February 8, 2011 Share Posted February 8, 2011 Great knife. With W2, do you have a hard time not clay coating the blade for HT knowing that a great hamon is just waiting to come out? I know I do . I usually have a plan for a plain blade and at the last minute wip out the satinite, adding numerous hours to the finishing.
