I'm a retired chef and I really like the profile of this knife. Very well done!
Thanks! I appreciate you watching!
Actually, I do enjoy hand sanding. It adds a personal touch.
I have grown to enjoy it more with time, especially since I take the blade up tp a higher grit before doing it. I appreciate you watching.
It turned out beautifully I really like the Osage orange handle
Thanks! I appreciate you watching!

Awesome! I may need one of those too. As well as several others lol!
Thanks! Yes you need to buy a bunch more, that would be great lol!
Fantástico!
Thanks! I appreciate you watching!
All those holes made the knife tang ultra weak.
Go look into forged full tang knives, even those made by mastersmiths have holes through the tang, it is done to help lighten the knife as well as allow the epoxy to travel through the tang. Even competetion choppers, machete, and camp knives have holes through the tang like this, a little research goes a long way. To each their own, I wish you the best.
Great build. As far as I am conceerned thermal cycling and tempering are parts of the heat trwting aas well.
Very nice job. Really likeing this one. Beautiful design. Hopefully this future owners get great use out of it for many years to come my friend. Keep up the great craftsmanship and hard work my friend. Forge on. Keep making. God bless.

Excellent video and great looking knife. Im assuming its 5160? How did you like it for edge holding and sharpening?
Thanks! I believe it is 5160 as well, it has held up extremely well, I use it with both a plastic and wood cutting board and it has worked out great. I appreciate you watching.
Adoro ver vídeos dessa forma quase tudo manual
Thanks for watching I greatly appreciate it!
Great video. Is that press you used at the beginning of the vid the one you fabricated in Alaska from a wood splitter?
Thanks! This one is the first one I had, it is also made out of a log splitter, but it is made to be used strictly as a forge press, the one I used in Alaska is still there. Thanks for watching, I greatly appreciate it!
👀👍
Thanks! I appreciate you watching!
Great video! Which model sander are you using?
Thanks! I appreciate you watching! I use a Brodbeck Ironworks 2x72 and an Origin Blademaker 2x72 both with a 2hp motor and vfd drive.
What's the thickness of that knife
The thickness at the spine where the handle ends is 0.19 inches with a steady distal taper to the point. The tang is also tapered. The width of the blade at the ricasso is 2.53 inches with the final blade edge thickness at .010 inches before sharpening. I appreciate you watching, Feel free to ask if there is anything else you would like to know.
Great looking knife. How can I purchase one?
Thanks! Right now I am booked for quite awhile, once I get caught up I will have some available. I sell them through my website at mmforge.org
@@Mysticmountainforge Any luck on having time to make any chefs knives or a good all around use kitchen knife?
