Woodsman vs. Xmas steak

[sizzler]

Woodsman versus Xmas tri-tip steak. Apples might do well for a patina but I have discovered that BLOOD works far better!

Mmmm! meat with salt!

Mmmm, even better, meat with gooey center!

Pup likes it too!

For the BEST patina use blood, not apples!

Nice pics. Someday I'll have to share some of my Fiddleback Nessmuk in action. Is the Woodsman O1 steel also? I cut up some potatoes into thin chips yesterday and the Nessmuk worked great but I wiped it down to quick to let a patina develop.

 

[sizzler]

Yup. O1 steel. That patina developed in about ten minutes. Fast!

I'm looking forward to letting mine develop a patina, I just couldn't let it happen at the first use. Andy's knives are incredible, I know this one will develop a lot of character through the years.

The more BLOOD the more character!

 

[Fiddleback]

Cut up an apple, or an orange or something. Patina. Now.

That steak LOST that battle.

But it lost in style!

i ran out of blood, so I had to use some mustard. A couple of red spots but the Simichrome should fix that up right quick.

Hey Sizzler, What type of wood is that handle?

Regards

 

[sizzler]

Stabilized dyed curly maple.

That was the last of that batch. I've cut a bunch more to send out.
