Great video. I also appreciate the fact that you actually forged the whole thing. So many just trace and cut a pattern from tool stock. That may produce a decent product but it is not forging. Just a curiosity, why a hidden tang? I always thought that a full, exposed tang was a stronger tang. Amazing job. Thank you.

[@maplecreekcutlery]

Thank you! And I just really enjoy the craft and the tradition behind it. And while usually a full tang is going to be better suited for a hard use knife, the design and flow of this piece just worked better as a hidden tang.

Great job. Everything complicates each other

Nice build. What did you use for an etch and what are you using for your stone wash medium?

[@maplecreekcutlery]

Thank you! I'm using ferric chloride that is 50/50 water and ferric. And the media is ceramic tumbler media from harbor freight.
