Okay guys here's the lowdown. I got this knife in a trade from a BF member, and honestly it will take more work than I have skill for. It came with a convex grind which was incredibly dull, and after a slight amount of cardboard cutting it was duller than my butter knives. I tried to reprofile this into a useful 20 degree edge but it's proving to simply be too much metal to remove. I don't have the tools or skill to do it, so I'm trying to trade this to anyone who'll take it. It's a very useful blade, and if you can fix the bevel I'm sure it will be a fantastic user. Any decent offer will be accepted.

Here's the knife and box

In this photo you can get a better look at the grind as I tried to fix it

My (slight) progress towards the heel of the blade

And the very dull front portion.

Anyways thanks for looking, I hope someone can put some legitimate use on it. If no one wants it after a week I'll probably just send it to cutlerylover
