Fish guttin', tater peelin', rustic knife

Sarge, your meanderings there are the exact reason I love making these file knives. Boy do they ever cut and hold an edge well too. That little one I just finished is by far the sharpest knife I've ever owned. I've been using it and only it since I finished it, and its just a joy to cut with. :thumbup:
 
Hard to say how much I love her and miss her, I am the grass and she is the dew.

That's beautiful.

How wonderful to have a relationship like that. Nice work.
 
Thanks Kis, she's a keeper, we've been best friends for going on fourteen years. :thumbup:

I like thin blades. 2 of my favorites are 1/8 and 3/32

Here's the 1/8" . It wasn't made by Dan but he etched it and put a wicked convex on it

Here's the 3/32" It is more roughly finished but is a great cutter

HD, those are sweet! :thumbup:

Sarge, life is short. Don't wait, if there's another option.

Darn. I'm still not a genius. Just last night I was thinking how freakin' cool it would be if someone made a mini Nessmuk, and that maybe I should draw one up and see if I could get someone to make it for me... It could even be called "Lil Nessie":D

The ideas apparently done been taken. Man those are incredibly neat! I want one!:D

The maple one was made by Dale Chudzinski.

He makes an even smaller version called a mini nessmuk. Here is Ms. Hd's in Osage it's 3/32 also:

Here's Dale's Website: http://chudzinski.tripod.com/index.html

He does a fantastic convex edge!!:thumbup: :thumbup:

Here's a thread we did a while back w/ various interpretations of the style.

In his book Woodcraft(who Kismet introduced me to) Nessmuk talks about the value of a thin bladed knife.
