That thing looks like a nightmare to grind. How many other knives have you done before? Congrats

That is one rugged looking knife.

I'm thinking of trying my hand at this style in 5160. How did you do the sawteeth? What type of grinder do you have? I was curious if you used a special technique on a particular grinder. BTW, nice job.

Blade70714, that's pretty good. Good work.

Very well made, I like it.

Well done indeed.
I like the finish too. Did you leave it as heat treated or is that a special finish. Looks rustic, very cool.

Very nice blade70714. It looks really robust. I love the oak slabs, look strong too. I love oak wood. It's a noble wood. The blade seems to be more sharp than the original. It's a good work.
