Can't help but post...

I have my first one ready for heat treat, and I am JACKED!

Sweet!

Is it unlucky to post pics? You know, too early to celebrate? I'd hate for the blade to get lost in the mail - or ground to a fine powder like my last one.

Congratulations men! welcome to the addiction... go ahead and post pics, if we spot something maybe we can take some of the "luck" out of the equation for ya man!

Yes it's bad luck to not post pics. In fact every time someone posts about having their first knife ground and ready WITHOUT posting a pic about it, a puppy dies. So it's essentially a double whammy. I'd suggest getting pics up asap.

It's like fishing. No one believes you unless you have a picture, even if it's from a crappy cell phone.

Okay, here' goes. She ain't perfect, but she's exactly what I wanted.

Nice job. I usually put the lanyard hole in the lower section of the butt, but it probably doesn't make much difference.

Looking very good so far, especially the crisp grind lines. I'm on my 4th knife and my grind lines still can't be seen at all..they're that over sanded or w/e.

I like it!

I hope my first one looks that good.
