Just finished making a knife!

in knife •  7 years ago 

Hand rubbed S30v stainless steel blade w/ Voodoo Resins scales
Flatgrind
Overall Length - 9 1/2"
Blade Length - 4 3/4"
Blade Thickness - .140"

Was a nice change of pace from making the Shark Tooth knives. Doing the hand rub finish on S30v wasn't that fun though. S30v is a notoriously hard/tough steel and I went through alot of sand paper getting that finish on there. The Voodoo Resins scales came out amazing! They are a mix of resin and aluminum honeycomb that give a unique look. Also, I got to practice my flat grinding. I prefer hollow grinding but this was also a nice change of pace. As a whole, I think everything came together well and I look forward to making more new designs!

Wow maam ang salute your dedication to the community

That's badass! Did you make in "forged in fire" style? I mean did you forged the blade yourself?

No...I do what they call stock removal. I want to try forging in the future....it's on the to do list basically. lol. So many rabbit holes to go down in knife making!

Oh man I'll become a bladesmith when I retire lol. Good job.
