Hey guys... im starting my first knife project, and i picked up a Cold Steel SRK blank and a couple of pieces of micarta, and am off to the races.

I notched out the micarta, but now I am on to the main grinding of the blade. But i dont know what angle to grind at!

So can somebody measure the angle of the blade for me? not what you sharpen the blade to, but what the main saber(or is it convex?) grind is...

Thanks a bunch, pictures of the project to follow.
 
IIRC, the SRK is hollow ground. Probably and 8" or 10" contact wheel.

Where did you find an SRK blank?
 
Picked up a blank from a guy on ar15.com. He says its an srk and even though the markings have been ground off, you can still see the imprint. I tried to get pics but they didnt turn out well.

Thanks for the info though. Looks like i just have to pick an angle and stick with it since i dont have the capability to do a hollow grind.
