Here's a pair of forged blades from some rebar. Rebar comes in different grades and some of it is fairly decent knife steel. Sharpens quickly and holds an edge well enough to do some work- An easy to sharpen and easy to use knife. First one of these I made is in the kitchen, and has been in daily use for over a year as a utility knife- opening boxes, food packaging, and mail, as well as cuttting fruit. Works very well and holds up. Takes to a steel well, too.
So here's a pair up on the block:
The one that looks like a miniature naginata is 7.5 inches OAL with a 3 inch V ground blade and a convex final edge.
The bellied blade is full convex ground, 7 3/8 inches long with a 2 5/8 inch blade.
both come with slip cover sheaths.
Sold!
