Had some distractions for the last couple weeks, trying to get some momentum going again. So I started a couple new pieces on a new pattern that are for nobody.

Love my little Atlas forge.

1084 and 154CM:

This is a 210mm Petty that was designed based on input from Carl Kristian Frederiksen, chef at Dill restaurant in Reykjavik. The blade is differentially hardened W2 @62 HRC. The handle is sugi cedar with buffalo horn and nickel-silver accents and the saya is Hawaiian koa.

 

[Alex Topfer]

@Carterwhopkins is there a bit of a recurve in the tip, or is that just a product of the light? it looks like a strange profile to me

i have a W2 chefs knife ready to heat treat. I'm hoping to get a hamon, though i'm still pretty new at this

I like the long petty style and recently did one myself

Sweet work gentlemen
A man could fall in love with folders hanging around this thread if he wasn't careful
I couldn't handle two rabbit holes

Haven't posted anything here in awhile, but really proud of this latest one I just finished up. First time doing a single bevel, and using (200 layered) Ni-Mai steel.

EDIT: should clarify that I didn't make the Ni-Mai myself. Just hammered the crap out of it. Gregg at Dion Damascus made a special order bar of it for me. Great guy.

A lefty!
Love the mark on the matching saya.

Yakut , first one and I already like it...

3mm on spine

 

[Justin Schmidt]

Finally finished the Texas chopper.

Have one more custom order I'm working on then I'm going to focus my attention on strictly chef knives.

Finished the 1084 blade from earlier. Belt-finished, which is unusual for me. Got to do more of that...
This new (to me?) Richlite material from Masecraft is interesting. It works like paper micarta, but maybe a tad lighter weight? I didn't expect the camo-splotch pattern. Sharp abrasives at low speed are the way to go with this stuff.
