| I actually finished this one a few weeks ago. I'm delivering it tomorrow. I played with the etch a bit...by "a bit" I mean that I changed it entirely. Just trying out new things as I go. |
 |
| Got these two Large Outdoor knives shaped and oiled. Just waiting on shellac. After that, I can etch and sharpen. |
 |
| I did brass liners under the scales on one of them. It doesn't have much of a contrast against the cherry, but its still a classy touch. |
 |
| Then I decided I wanted to take another shot at my original chef's knife. I wasn't happy with the grinds on the first ones that I made. I'm using what I learned on the last chef's knife to make this one better. |
 |
| One of the difficult parts of the last chef's knife was holding the tip of the blade during grinding. My magnetic block proved itself perfect for this task. Now I can control my pressure better. I can't wait to do the clean up on this blade and get it into the kiln! If I'm a good boy tonight, maybe I can heat treat it right away in the morning when I get up. |
