5160 ss fitting and burl? (dont remember). Well just to let some of you know, I have not had any schooling on knife making, nor have I ever even met a knife maker in person, other than what Linn and Karl have schooled me here on it.. I work mostly with a ball pen hammer my grandpa's old anvil and a home made forge that Linn showed everybody here how to make.. I just wanted to post like every body else does.. I damn sure don't nor heard any body talk about no formula for recossio thanks for that Mr Evans for the privet message. Yes I would like that Formula? Didn't know there was a such a thing for knife making.. I do the best I can with what I got slowly but surly I am getting the tools I need, not long ago I got a kmg grinder so were looking up here. I thought your plug was suposta be forward? I will fix that on the next one.. My biggest problem is getting my shoulders filed. I got thick skin just hope some others do too. Have a good day..

Nice
Looks as though would make an excellent boning knife.
Keep up the good work , and make the next one just a little better.

I think you did a really good job for someone who says he is a beginning knife maker. Sure doesn't look like a beginner's knife.
