Eustace, I can see the progression in each knife. That last one is night and day more improved that the 1st one. None are bad, all really look usable. I am proud for you, and now with your basement shop I bet things really flow. Thanks for sharing them all. ::nod:: ::nod:: ::tu:: ::tu::

No. Ferric chloride etching. I do not have working conditions for forging. All my knives are grinded bars.

Thanks again to all!

Thanks, doglegg, but unfortunately grinding system is not very fast. Its power is only 1 EP (Eustace power) :?
