Thats classy mate.

A flap disc on an angle grinder gives a quick re-grind. Be careful not to blue the blade... if it a new disc and you don't put too much pressure on it will be fine. Dip in water if you think it is getting too hot. Also great for sharpening axes. Griff

Fantastic craftsmanship

Work of art

Love the detail on the brass spacers....any chance of a close up? Griff

Yes i like the forged texture left on knives. P1080631 by Terry Griffiths, on Flickr P1050757_zpswmyfet5q by Terry Griffiths, on Flickr P1090361 by Terry Griffiths, on Flickr P1040576_zpsdtj8jtwt by Terry Griffiths, on Flickr

Nice looking blade Elchapo.

Nice little knife. Cracking Job!

Once a blade-smith......it get in your blood!

Ah yes the materials.....another reason i make most of mine out of re-cycled materials.....keeps the end cost down...meaning more sales......and a better hrly rate for me! But in seriousness it is a whole another ball game if you are using expensive materials and yes you need to charge for them!!! Here is a 100% recycled material knife of mine....OK so i bought the Kydex for the sheath but the rivets are old gas pipe, the lanyard an old boot lase etc. P1060496_zps1zelylq7 by Terry Griffiths, on Flickr P1060501_zps6vqkwqii by Terry Griffiths, on Flickr P1060518_zps8azz1aar by Terry Griffiths, on Flickr

Still good time for a knife of that quality finish. I get mine roughed out and think wow 4 hrs and i have made a knife!...........then comes all the heat treating, refining, polishing etc etc and yes 20 + hrs later you have a superior hand crafted knife....not everyone will pay £200+ for such a blade ( personally my goal is not to drop below £10 hr charge out) Yes there are tricks & shortcuts to take the time factor down but there is no substitute for time when it comes to a top hand crafted package like yours!

Cracking job!

Ho about a Damascus blade.......... in 3hrs. VID
