Re: Show Off Your Kitchen Knives!
Those Keen Kutter boxed silverware sets are sweet! I've been hoping to find a decent one at a reasonable price at auction.
Are there any maker marks on the pieces?

Pocket, fixed, machete, axe, it's all good!

Re: Show Off Your Kitchen Knives!
Just got this yesterday… Little Queen fixed blade… The very tip is broken ..I’m going to fix it up and I might use it as a paring knife or I might just keep it in my collection (probably collection) it looks like I was barely ever used I don’t know how the tip got broken

After a year of use, ABS Master Smith Jon Christensen, hand forged W2 tool steel(from Don Hanson III), clayless hamon with toxic green liners and 4500 year old bog oak from the Ukraine. Keep it sharp on a 9k stone.
Re: Show Off Your Kitchen Knives!
I've done a few of these blade blanks from Jantz. Their VG-10 blanks are pretty nice quality, this santoku blank runs over $100. I finished it with black micarta and ironwood.
I just picked up this smaller blank to work on for the wife.

Re: Show Off Your Kitchen Knives!
My latest Remington find:a carving set and an extra knife thrown in. Handles are faux stag(some kind of black ugly material)but there is just a hint of someone sharpening the blade(thankfully not with a power tool)and for three bucks I ain't complaining!

Tony Bose paring Zulu, handled by Rick Menefee. Used every day for 5 years, dosen't get more "honest" or "hard working" than that.
Re: Show Off Your Kitchen Knives!
After a year of everyday use, our nakiri looks as good as the day we received it. The ZFinite is an exceptional steel. Edge kept up on a 9k japanese stone.

Tried using it on a chunk of frozen meat about 3 inches by 5 inches and finally got through it after about 10 minutes.Should have used a saw.cody6268 wrote: ↑Tue Dec 08, 2020 5:15 pmNice set!knife7knut wrote: ↑Sat Jul 18, 2020 4:38 am My latest Remington find:a carving set and an extra knife thrown in.

Scored on the local Facebook swap. 5 piece Old Hickory set in the box for $15. Ruined my credibility telling my wife she needs to quit buying stuff in there though

Re: Show Off Your Kitchen Knives!
Couple of very useful knives.
1).Washington Cutlery Co, "VILLAGE BLACKSMITH" #711,(14" overall 1898-1940). Bought it for 25 cents at a church sale. Very high quality razor sharp.
2).GEORGE COWAN, Sheffield, (1800's)?. Original stag handle re-purposed for a custom hunting knife. Blade reground to thinner profile for filleting whatever we catch in the Atlantic. It'll flex 45 degrees for filleting. Homemade handle. ("Squid Lips" is our boat's name.) J.O'.
