hey Dan, i recieve my new "baby" on wednesday. it is a beautiful lil knife. you did an excellent job with it. my only thing is, maybe a lil higher edge grind, but oh well.

i was surprised by how thick and heavy it is for a knife so small. then again it is one solid peice of steel so that should explain everything for me.

btw, its kinda like a birthday gift. i won the knife the day after my 18th birthday. :D :D :D

thanks again Dan,

If you were in Canada, you could legally drink.

Huh huh. :p


So if I get this right, if you had won a few days earlier, Dan couldn't have sent you the knife?

Enjoy that beauty :)

lol, now why would i want to go to Canada? everyone walks around with their rifles in the mall (according to weird Al anyway)................actually, that would be so bad..............and the bacon, must remember the bacon. :thumbup:



drinking = :thumbdn: for me. be it the USA or anywhere

i dunno what his rules are, but hey, i won it on time, so it works. its my new lil baby!
 
Glad you like it! :thumbup:

The edge is "low" because it's almost a zero edge grind...!

But, being damascus, naturally...I couldn't do a zero edge (you'd rub off the etch the first time you sharpen it).

So, I decided that since this one probably won't be used to cut down trees....and mostly for fine cuts...to go ahead and go nice and thin at the edge. (0.005-0.008")


Let me know how it goes.

Thanks!

Dan
