Wow that is turning out nicely! 
The blast job looks great, is that a sand then bead blast? I like it...
Excellent work!

Haha I'm not sure! It's pretty aggressive media that we have in the blaster at work I'm not sure exactly what it is. after heat treat I blasted it and then tumbled it but I didn't like the look so after taking the bevels to 400 grit I taped it off and blasted it again. I like the contrast now.
It's a great job ! Frank

Cool project. :thumbup:
Looks to me like all the discussion paid off, I like it !
Bro...that's excellent work. It's good to see another fellow Machinist in this forum.
Keep it up.
Keep it up.
Turned out great! But doesn't the wood need some more love?
It does. I also need to sharpen the knife! It's close to finished but not quite finished.
I really like how that is shaping up. Wasn't sure in the very beginning but it looks great!
Nice work:thumbup:
