Thanks friends. There are knives that deserve mirror finishes, and other "rustic" finishes. This knife is one of the few that I will bring to Solingen's show on May 6th and I prefer to have on my table mirror finish or satin polished knives (with grain 2000).

Timos,
I grind the blade off of an old Kitchen knife with a big handle and leave about 2" of steel to keep grinding and regrinding the point that you put in the pin hole for Tang Tapering. It fills my hand much better and gives good control instead of using a file handle for a push stick for tapering.

I've been working on some designs for some medium sized "EDC" fixed blades im going to make i found a blade shape i really like. Going to get a quote from my waterjet guy and see how many I can run and what the pricing would end up being like. I made a full scale mock up and im very pleased with how it feels and the size of it. The blade is about 4 inches long.
