    S- grind carving knife .... Well , sort of :)
    It's kilij, Turkish style sword . One of the best swords out there with the profile and superior crucible steel . I had couple not so good knifemaking days ,whatever I have touched got ruined , needed to do something else and empty my mind . 1.5 hours of hand forging including the bevels then 1 hour of rough grinding

    Me making a cutting video with that sword will be a bad idea , I mean really bad . I am hoping to finish it for Sydney16 knife show
     
  7. Hang it on the wall in your restaurant with a small sign: "that's what we use when our clients misbehave"
     
  8. When is the knife show? Might have to plan a trip to sydney.

    Not a fan of copying profiles of other knives but this one came out so much like masamoto ks . It is forged from 1095 , differentially heat treated
