Greetings,
This is my first cautious step into posting some of my own work in this sub-forum.
This is a commissioned set of kitchen knives. The request was for a ~5" petty, tending toward santoku. The result is this matched pair in 0.100" 154CM, micarta, and G10. Grinds are western double-sided FFG. The paring knife is my usual paring blade pattern rendered as a hidden tang.
The petty is a 6" blade, and the paring knife about 3.5". Both are hand-rubbed 600x with 1000x on the crowned spines. These blades feature my new mark ("Gold Knifeworks"). These have yet to be sharpened, obviously.
As always, I see every flaw, but in general I am pleased with the set.
(I think that paring bolster needs a little more 600x on the obverse side...)
Thanks for looking.
