Title: a few 1075 knives I finished up
Post by: Gdpolk on December 29, 2016, 06:15:00 AM

These were all pretty basic in design for me and were made to be part of my tuition on freehand grinding.  Some of what I did got tossed but these have been on the back burner for handles for a while so I got them finished up this week.  None of these are spectacular but I had fun making them and learned quite a bit from the process on these early on.

And my first attempt at filework.  I enjoyed the process so I may pick up some better files and work on refining this skill...

I really like the handle design on the top knife. Looks like it would ride well in the hand. Nice work.

Not bad at all! I really like the bottom design, pretty cool!
