My recent work...

[Daniel Fairly Knives]

Here's a new tanto in black rayskin.

New kiridashi design.

Here I am testing the edges of my recent batch for sharpness.

I'm trying to show off the new batch here, it is pretty funny.

Nice batch, Daniel! How thick are those choppers (wow!), and how do you sharpen your blades?

 

[B.Mauser]

Man I love your work!

Thanks guys!

Paul, I sharpen with a series of belts: 60, 120, 220, 320, 600, cork belt/green chrome, leather strop/pink scratchless. Sometimes I use scotchbrite belts to blend a convex.

I have been using the same setup for a little while and while I could get them sharp before now that my technique is improving they are really sharp!


Here's a sharp one... freehanging paper cut!

I had a hard time capturing the hamon in a photo but this is my first hamon.

That big parang is really cool.
