Tac 7 variant

That Shadetree stuff is the shit ! ,,,and at least one side of the blade looks great :D

Man you ain't lying!! When I saw that I was mesmerized....wanted it...needed it.....had to get it......

Then I saw the flat side...

Maybe some other time.

But DAMNUM!!! That is some killer ass grinds on 1 half!!
 
If it was V-ground it wouldn't look the same...

I love it J. The flat side looks insane. The handle is incredible, I love the material.

Chisel ground gives the high grind that makes it look so cool.
 
without this

imho..
 
Yep. People don't realize how deep that grind is. If I took it half as high and deep on the.other side. It would have this big hole in the middle of the. Blade. Use your imagination. To.do.this on both sides. And get it to this cutting geometry and edge thickness. Thr knife would have to be. .600 thick. Men if you cant get over the love of my hollow chisel grind. Mabey its time to go back to 60grit belt. Seven second. edge work. Your choice. Im really tired of talking about it.
 
Not knocking your love for hollow chisel grinds. You love it, you do it. I never used one so I don't know anything about any advantages it may have....if any other than to allow for really deep hollow grinds. You make badass knives and I am lucky enough to have one and there are lots of people that eat this chisel shit up. Just a few of us who really like your work do not like this one aspect of some of your knives.
 
IMHO ,I don't mind the flat unground side because the ground side is so unique the way J does it and,most importantly to me,the knife works. They cut like crazy.It's kind of like the lady who lives down the way from me. She is not the greatest looker in the world,but the rest of her makes Little Oscar spring to attention every time I see her. So I haven't looked at her face for a good seven years. The rest of her is world class. Just MHO. The knife style is kind of the Horton maker's mark. A formal one isn't really needed.
 
Hey man, i want a new chopper. Something like the one i got only cooler. With a handle that fits me.

Ill sell the other one when you get something i like made.
