Great way to start off, a grand entrance for sure. I like all the new recent activity that’s coming here too.

That Dexter I posted yesterday used to be my Grandfathers daily kitchen knife. I have such good memories of him always using it on the yellow Formica kitchen table to slice up the cured pork belly for frying. I too use it now in the kitchen every chance I can, each time I hold it I get such a big grin on my face knowing he’s looking down and watching over us.

Have a great weekend buddy and I’ll see you again soon.

You have a nice weekend my dear friend.

Here is a hidden tang "puko" in 15n20. The steel stock was .07. So it is pretty thin and slicey.

The handle is burned hickory and the end caps or "bolsters" are 15n20, held in position by small 15n20 nails i made out of scrap (and epoxy). The tang is also peened over the end cap.

Its the first hidden tang, and first knife out of this steel I've made (4th knife made).
