So, what kinds of tutorial or WIPs would you like to see here?

A lot of people have expressed interest in seeing various aspects of my knifemaking process.

Documenting every aspect would be quite lengthy, so it would probably be better to narrow it down to specific tasks.

What would you like to see?

I'm thinking about starting relativley simple; maybe handle wrapping, basic profiling, etc.

The idea being that someone could hopefully view the tutorial, and have enough information to try it for themselves at some point.

Any requests?

I would love to see the design process of making a fixed blade.

in other words what kind of rules do you have to follow when making the handle/choil to make it ergonomic.

what kinds of angles/cuts should be avoided to minimize the chance of a fracture during heat treat ect.....I think a wip like this would be very helpful to a lot of people..

Stay sharp!

Good idea! :thumbup:

Sort of a basic overview on design philosophy?

Yeah that and to be more specific....what makes you like a design? What inspired it? Is there a specific task that this design would excel in? Do you just like the looks of it? Things like that.

Sounds good!

Let me see what I can put together.
