pietje & 1776 - The one thing I learned from doing this, is to take it slow. When you start modding and removing steel, it can't be undone. However, don't be afraid to make mistakes, it's a great way to learn. I ruined a few blades in my day, but I just see it as practice. Good Luck!

Munzer, your BK10 is a beauty! Thanks for sharing the picture in the past.
Tobiism, it turned out great! How did you achieve the second jumping at the spine?

Yup, slow and steady wins the race! Removing material is always a lot easier the adding. Plus temperature control off course. Good practice and fun! Even a ruined blade can have its application. Thanks will need some luck!

After a lot of regrinding- and handle projects this is my second BIG tip work project. I had some practice on Cold Steel's 1055. I started on the Becker Saturday…The 1095CV is definitely a lot tougher and harder material to work with.
