Sam Salvati Posted January 14, 2007 Share Posted January 14, 2007 Under the teaching of a master grinder, and with his help I was able to put a hollow grind, and an expert polish(of the style of course) and edge on a blade I forged from this neat water hardening steel. It came out great, shaves arm hair VERY good, and is overall a nice knife. I will do a leather chord wrap on the handle, as well as a leather "boot" style sheath, with some cool stuff burned into it. I am very pleased(as is my teacher) with how it came out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
