Been working on my sharpening, deburring on the stone and keeping the apex crisp and aggressive! Shots from a digital microscope. around 1000x magnification I think? This is MagnaMax steel

Sweet lil cutta'....👍👍👍
 
I've hesitated from posting here before because you all post such beautiful work and I'm just a beginner. This may not be up to the standards of some here, but I'm working on it. This one is for a friend who wanted something for her grandson for his birthday. I think it came out pretty nice. Also posted in the "Purple haze" thread.

Looks great from here. Any close up pictures to share?
 
I could list the imperfections and errors myself but I'll let you all do that. :) One of the things I'm enjoying about this hobby is the enormous room for improvement. No matter how pleased I am with a finished product I can always find things to do better on the next one. The photos were pretty high resolution so here's a couple of close up crops. The handle is desert ironwood and epoxy resin with purple pigment. It has white and black G10 liners, copper and mosaic pins and tube.

Anyone ever used Titanium Chest expansion bars in a knife build?
