Title: First Chef's knife
Post by: Skihard on March 26, 2015, 01:21:00 PM

Hi Yall,

Here are some pictures of my lasted knife, a chef's knife.  I am the son of a man you might know as Tippet.  I am currently working and trying to learn as much about knifes as possible.  I try to find time to work on knives between all the other metal work I do.  Any feed back is welcomed, critical is better for learning, I am a blacksmith I have thick skin I can take.

Anyone out there know of a good high quality leather guy.  I have been trying to contact Wyoming Leather Works with no luck.  But I am look for that quality or better.  Cheers

Well Zach,
Glad you finally posted here.  Very nice start on a chef's knife. Zach & I will be turkey hunting out in Nebraska in a few weeks.  Maybe we can get Kip or Mike our master chefs for the hunt to give their opinion...Dad

Looks like any chef would love that one.
I like those copper rivets.

I don't put myself in the same category as Wyoming Leather Works, but I'd be proud to make a sheath for that knife. That looks like a slicer supreme.
