Chute Knife

Looks awesome! I'd love to know your process for polishing hollow grinds while keeping those sharp bevel transitions. Fantastic looking knife.

Thank you! The knife goes into the oven with the flats ground to 220 grit and the primaries ground to 60 grit. After heat treatment the flats are ground from 220 grit up to mirror finish. Then the primaries are finish ground starting at 60 grit all the way up to mirror, staying away from the flats. If I grind and buff both the flats and primaries at the same time, I wash out the transitions, losing that sharp edge.
