I've made 15 or 20 knives, some I've been really proud of and enjoyed using, but I want to start refining and simplifying. I don't have too much time anymore so I'm starting small.
This one is out of 15n20. The wrap is waxed leather. Sorry for the bad pics, I took them with an iPad.
Any feedback is appreciated!









It might be hard to tell in the photos but the bevel along the spine runs the full length of the knife.
Thanks for looking.
 
Thanks. I've been using it almost every day carving and scraping, holds a decent edge but it's a little softer than I intended, not quite into the 60s I'm guessing.
