Great discussion on filework. I find I like looking at filework on other peoples knives, and it gives some interesting 'tells' about the maker. But it's not so often I see filework that seems to have that real unified flow to it. That's the kind of filework I'd like on a knife of my own. For a user, I'm afraid I'd be thinking of grit particles resting in those recesses too.
Wasn't sure where to put this one...'Hats and Blades'..'Blades and Bling'..'Just a Picture' (all great threads), so I thought I'd share it with my comrades in arms here. Start a new job tomorrow at a museum which celebrates the transport and industrial heritage of the South of England. Really looking forward to getting started, following a long and sometimes difficult period of unemployment, and submerging myself in the history of the region. Good to go!
