Whatsup everybody, I took some more lazy pics of a few knives I made. Basically just me havin fun learning and practicing. I'm trying to make all sorts of knives to see what type of blade I like the best and what I like the best making.
I got some pretty intense hamons on two of them. I'm trying to come up with a name for the type of hamon I make. So far i'm thinking "hailstorm hamon"because of how white and in your face it is. But that's a work in progress still. Open to suggestions
first one was my first blade made with sheep horn. Its hamon is very faint but the whole blade is covered in swirls of alloy banding which is a cool look i think.
10 inch blade chopper
\
santoku with buffalo horn and spalted tamarind
next is a fun blade with a 12 inch cutting edge. simple design which actually is one of my favorites so far. Its a knife I just hold and want to use. I even think the slightly curved handle like this has better grip when chopping then any contoured handle I've used and held.
