Something different, a wooden cheese knife and storage/display stand for my girlfriend. She had a wooden spreader (knife-shaped but not beveled) that we used for cheese, but we lost it somehow... That just sped up my plan to make her a nice one.

Drinking a beer and cut all the pieces for a multipart hidden tang handle. Glued up without any hidden pins, so I have the feeling that I'll be cursing in the future when it delaminates from heat buildup during shaping.

All black, I like it!

Looks good John! How did tapering the handle effect the balance? Obviously shifts it forward more, but how does it feel?

. it feels like it would work well, but i have not actually tried it out

Finished Bowie

I was worried about that, but it turned out really nice. One of my favorite knives that I have ever built.

Some parts for grinders. 6”, 10”, and 12” contact wheels, and a VFD for the 5hp motor.

5 hp, that will be a monster!

 

[Natlek]

One done ...............I hope my friend would like it Stealing doesn't pay off To much work for one saw

 

[Natlek]

So this 5mm thick MF win fight with my angle grinder ..................but lost 10 : 0 with my grinder

Marking edge line....two of them

I put too much effort in this one so far so I take extra precaution to make no mistake ...Make special jig just for this one . I even put grinder on ground

Even water under grinder don t help..............dust everywhere

Now rewards ............. hollow on 17 inch wheel , 0.3mm on edge ,little more then i like but safe is safe with this hss

I like to leave big radius on plunge , I believe that this make blade stronger ?

That is that .......now about my crazy idea .I will mold marble carbon handle with gard directly one knife , that big holes would be hidden pins ....and deal with anything what come with that

Here is a knife that I just finished up. A little sheepsfoot in 1084. That's some nice work Richard. Really like the looks of a nice small knife with wood handles. Everyone else as well.

5 hp, that will be a monster!

I think it will be mostly used in Damascus prep, or hogging off material from huge knives. I got the motor in exchange for heat treat services for Kim.
