This sold yesterday. I copied and pasted this from my sales thread minus the sales info... My friend T. Erdelyi said my grinds are much better. I haven't ground a blade for a bit over a year and the last one I did was very likely while drunk or spun. So here it is... got snatched up 3 hours after I posted it.

......
Just ground this today. Bidirectional CF at .250" thick. Ground in the Brent Beshara style with reinforced tip. Very stabby. Magnetically inert.











PS... there is water on the blade in these pics
 
Nice - I like the lines running the length of the blade - I wish the photos were more focused.

What material for the handle??
 
That lovely piece of works appears to be 100% Carbon Fiber.
 
Looks great CM, how big did the piece of CF start out? Did you buy it or make it yourself (the raw material, I'm guessing you cut it out yourself, not a blade blank)?
 
Bought a blank off the Bay. I think it might have been from the DDR Wilson Combat knives.
 
Sober is good. Keep at it, Matt.
Dunt forget a Besh Wedge blade balisong.

The grinding took less than 5 minutes. Here I am in my CF grinding gear...

 
Sweet looking covert knife

Are you wearing a Costco garbage bag? Outfit kind of reminds me of the scene in American Psycho!
 
Yup! Kirkland grinding shirt.
 
I like this! You did good, CM. Can't wait to see what else you can come up with :thumbup:
 
Yep, I'll join the other usual.... well, you get the idea, in saying it's good to see the Fresno Felon back at it again!
 
You may want to wear a hat, ear plugs, and some long sleeves, CF dust sucks when it gets embedded into your skin.
 
Oh yeah, worse itch than insulation!
