    Ban,

    Great work! I have to ask, as someone new to the hobby of knife making, are you free handing these amazing grinds or do you use a jig? If you do use a jig, would you mind sharing pictures?

    Thanks,

    Pete

    Pete,

    I do everything free hand. I don't have a problem with Jigs and know that they make things easier and more consistent. I just started off freehand grinding with much trial and error and now prefer to keep it that way.

    Those two fingers...
    Dang, I thought I was onto something unique. I designed a neck knife with a VERY similar design to them a couple of years ago.
    Beautiful work!
