Blade Project
Blade Project
This is the beginning steel
Forging the blade (making the shape)
Hand sanding the blade for the final edge before finishing the surface
Here is the blade before final assembly and handle shaping
Final knife assembly after completing sharpening, handle sanding, guard grinding, and finishing the surface of the steel
Final product, patterned steel shows very nicely. I loved doing this project because it was the first official blade that completed.
Small piece of cedar heartwood which I turned on a lathe
Small bowl I turned (result of previous image)
