MR RJF Posted August 23, 2008 Share Posted August 23, 2008 Heya Folks, here is my blade finished. The third blade I have forged! I decided to leave the blade somewhat black from the tempering cycles as I love the old patina look. Just a very thick "Rustic Chopper". Overall the blade took me 1.5 weeks from start to finish working a couple of hours per night after work. Specs : Forged 5/16 5160, 14.5 " OAL. Approx 2.5 LBS!! Scandi/Convex grind.

bg7m Posted August 26, 2008 Share Posted August 26, 2008 I like the finish on that knife. At 2 1/2 pounds, I bet it will do some serious chopping. I like the wood. Oak? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saiga308 Posted September 2, 2008 Share Posted September 2, 2008 The best part is when someone says,"What kind of knife is that!" you get to say "Mine." Very nice blade! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
