So this is my first knife from scratch. It's 440c with desert ironwood. I did all the blade shaping with the slack belt to get the rounded shape. I am working on some more like this but with a double hollow grind on each side. The blade was very hard to finish with the slack belt(took forever without being able to press against a wheel). What do you think? Suggestions welcome.
