Next step in knifemaking

Posted on November 27, 2020November 28, 2020 By admin

Finished the rough grinding tonight, then squared everything off with hand files. The result is shockingly straight and looks… good!! I finished the edging jig and I had started on the edge filing when I did an oopsie. The file wasn’t secured strongly enough by the zip ties and went past the line where I wanted to stop. It’s going to show.

Oh well. This is the 1st knife. It’s a learning experience. We’re figuring everything out as we go along. But you know what? I’m having a f’n blast!!

Quote of the day

I once absend-mindedly ordered Three Mile Island dressing in a restaurant and, with great presence of mind, they brought Thousand Island Dressing and a bottle of chili sauce.
