Nice, please report as soon as the knife sees kitchen duty, would like to know how it performs..125" and probably around 7"?
it's super nimble, handle is very svelte
Pretty please can I see a spine shot
couldn't be bothered is the honest answerInteresting that you didn't sceletonized the handle. It's because of balance?
Today I used my dek1 for food duty, those notches on the handle really favor a pinch grip. If you release this chef knife for sale sometime, and manage to make it a inch or two longer, you will have a winner on your hands.got this kitchen knife all slapped together today, and now that it's done enough that we can use it, I'll be back at DEK3 which is coming along but hand sanding is a slow process
kitchen knife is totally designed for that grip. It's actually not a bad first try if I do say so myself. It was a little daunting just thinking about how do you grind a knife like that but once I got going it came pretty natural. I like food knives more now, having made one for us to use, and think I might focus my attention toward that facet of cutlery somewhat more in the futureToday I used my dek1 for food duty, those notches on the handle really favor a pinch grip.

Cheers!
Seriously, I couldn't stop thinking on the picture as I was cutting. Hit me up if you do another one, I'd love to get onekitchen knife is totally designed for that grip.

f-ed if I know!Out if interest, what hardness do the a2 prototypes run at?
Sorry if I sound dumb here but if it got rid of ALL the oxygen there would be some paper traces left?So, I asked him- what happens to the paper in the envelope? He said that it combusts, and consumes the oxygen. I asked what it left. He said a tiny bit of ash, to which I replied- what else? At that point I guess he got frustrated, sent me a dm saying that he does heat treating for a living, (he works at a mold making shop, so it's true) and that he's just trying to help. I asked again, what else is left in the envelope? At that point he blocked and unfollowed me
I just had the weirdest falling out with an acquaintance who had offered in the past to hardness test my knives, so I assume that offer's off the table, lol!...
That’s it I’m done with you!for erm reasons.I hate weird falling-outs. Often times, it involves murky waters and no clear lines as to the what, why, and how of it all as it goes off the rails. Sorry things didn't work out - it always sucks, whether it's weird, murky, or crystal clear as to why one parts ways.
Complete combustion of hydrocarbon fuels leads to water and CO2 as products. There are many (thousands) of intermediates, and incomplete combustion will leave CO among other things. O2 should be consumed if there is excess fuel.f-ed if I know!

When I posted a picture of DEK3 and the kitchen knife in their foil envelopes to instagram, this fellow asked if I put a piece of paper inside so the oxygen would be consumed. I said no, to which he replied that I was wasting my time putting knives in foil at all. So, I asked him- what happens to the paper in the envelope? He said that it combusts, and consumes the oxygen. I asked what it left. He said a tiny bit of ash, to which I replied- what else? At that point I guess he got frustrated, sent me a dm saying that he does heat treating for a living, (he works at a mold making shop, so it's true) and that he's just trying to help.

The point that I was trying to make, was that I had done some research and conducted my heat treatment with at least a small understanding of what I was doing and NOT wasting my time. I wanted him to know that the old guys he works with in the heat treat shop might be sharing magical thinking, passed down through the ages. There are so many myths when it comes to blades and the manipulation of steel- no surprise there. But... oxygen does not simply vanish, leaving a vacuum, it is converted to something else. Maybe I'm wrong, but I at least looked into it and questioned what I think is one of those myths. Maybe his reaction to my reasonableness was tied up in this belief that he had, who knows? Maybe I was being a dick
Anyway, since I didn't get a chance to hash it out with him since he took his toys and went home, I thought it get it out of my system here
