These are some blades I forged and ground for a friend and knifemaker . He did not know the proper distal and profile taper for a japanese blades so , I did them for him
Blades are made from low manganese (.30) 1095. I bought it at Knife show at Carpenters hall in St louis . Not sure if he wants hamon or not though? This would be some nice steel for hamon. Just remember low mang , low mang, low mang, and you wont go wrong....
