Thanks for the comments. No, this is not a forged blade. The blade does have a hamon but didn't show up in pictures

Aldo, Thanks. Yes it has been tested. I took it over to Jason Knight to show him and have
him test it out with some heavy chopping, it performed perfect no edge chipping or rolling
and a few light passes on a stone and strop it is now super sharp. Thanks Gene
 
That piece has a lot of good design points, and the clean line makes it a pleasure to look at. Great using potential there.
 
That knife is a chopping machine. We tested it on a maple tree, no problem through 2" branches one chop!
 
Okay, I was wondering why I got the call today! Jason, it'll be there in 3 days. Come and get it Folks," Master Smith Approved W-2!!" :) at your local neighborhood Steel Baron's
