I hate it when...

I hate it when work and other obligations keep getting in front of my knife making so that I can't keep knives flowing towards knife lovers that I know love my work and I want to keep offering something special to you guys and I struggle to find the time and energy to keep up with my pursuit1671316204229.jpg
 
I hate it when my muscles all knot up from doing a process like hand sanding or whatever, especially between my shoulder blades. I guess pain is weakness leaving the body? 😂

My hands were killing me a week ago from hand sanding a magnacut kitchen knife. I had to take a break for a few days. Im going to hopefully finish it this week some time.

The secret to never getting sore from hand sanding is to become a rock climber! 💪
 
American or British ratings?

It’s been a number of years since I’ve climbed rock. Mostly a sport climber/boulderer. At my peak sport climbed 5.12a/b, bouldered V8/9.

I still ice climb…W3/4.

That’s pretty cool!

Well it worked for me, lol. (I once spent over 16 hours hand sanding a large blade is s35vn 😛)
 
I hate it when I drop a bolster when I grind it and it goes right into the bucket of water and grinder dust sludge. Then I have to put my hand in and find it. Now when it's cold it's extra unpleasant.
 
Burn it! Burn it with fire!!
after the screaming stopped, and I was able to compose myself, I searched through the pile of stuff on the floor I stripped off in miliseconds- respirator, ball cap, hoody, apron, jacket- and I found that guy. A broke leg or two, and probably wondering what the hell was going on, but alive and probably already thinking about eating something.
I put it outside, but in retrospect, I should have stashed it under a work bench where it could continue serving me in silence by eating bugs that want to eat my house.
 
Years ago I was living in NC, poor as as you can get (just divorced) and sleeping on the floor at a buddies house.

I woke up slapping something off my chest. All I ever found of the spider was one 2" long hairy leg as big around as a pencil lead (Shudder).
 
I was walking through the thick brush here in Florida once when I went through a spider web, no biggie, right? Well I had a funny feeling that something was on my back, so I slowly took off my shirt and looked, well sure enough there was a golden orb weaver that was about 4" across, lol!

I've also seen a grown man scream like a little girl once when I spider get on his face! 🤣😂🤣
 
I hate it when I get the “helicopter of death”while drilling holes, the “banana blade” after quenching, and the dreaded “snap” while attempting to straighten the banana blade.
 
I hate it when the enormous wolf spider who's taken up residence in my grinding hoody makes a run for it across my face when I start grinding at some knife
It could have been worse…………much worse. 😂😂😂

I hate it when my design is a saber grind, but becomes a full flat grind because “I can get that grind like a little straighter.”
