L6, I aint a knifemaker, but I am an artist.
I have to say..."You think too much!"
Enjoy the doing, the results will come.
If you do from a result oriented point of view, you'll always be your own worst critic and never pleased.
In art school we had a life drawing class.
One girl just couldn't get her drawing started. The professor, after gently prodding her, finally became exasperated.
He hollared "Don't be intimidated by the blank page!"
and tossed her pad on the floor and stepped on it. Leaving a big shoe print on the 18x24 white sheet.
"There! It's not blank anymore. Draw!"
Don't let yourself be intimidated by a piece of steel.
Do have fun.
Don't think too much.
It's fun, not work.
Have fun
