Video- Rounding a knife spine- one approach

Thanks Nick, I watch your videos multiple times every time you produce one. Being new to knife making (2 Years) these things really help.

Thanks Nick, loved the video, similar to how I do mine, but I got a few idea's on how to do it better and maybe a bit easier.
 
Nick,
Thank you for posting this and ALL of the other videos!! I have learned a lot from them and have made a lot of the tools that you show us. Like Patrice, I always need something new. LOL

Thanks again,
Fred
 
Nice tips, Nick. I've been doing something similar on my smaller kitchen knives (even before watching the video). The difference for me was I only radiused the spine of the knife, not the tang. It created a very interesting effect, in that it made the blade look significantly thinner than it did previously. My wife has commented about how thin the blade was (compared to the Global I was copying), but in fact it was about the same thickness.

Of course mine doesn't look NEAR as professionally finished as yours. Now at least I know how to advance the technique. Thanks.

HaHa, that's exactly what I was just thinking when I read that Fred! :)

Thanks Fred, I'm glad you get something out of them!

Greg- I agree, it definitely makes a blade appear thinner.

Thanks guys. :)
