Hi every body !!!!!!! OK so I finished my first forged knife and also my first flat grind, This is my 5th knife . It is 7 3/8" long the blade is 3 1/8" long and 1 1/4" wide ,Its steel is made by my POPS but forged by me it is 1095-15n20 damascus ,the handle is black & red box elder with brown spots in it .the tubes are 1/4" SS. This was lots of fun but Hot and hard work,flat grinding takes longer than I thought and is harder than I thought to get it just right,but it sure makes the knife sharp and lighter,also I tapered the tang.OK so #6 coming up "LOL" ,trying to talk POPs into a bowie next but he's stuck on me doing small ,I need some help guys tell him to let me do a BOWIE,or a sword Please "LOL". This knife is going to be gift to someone we all know on this site but i'm not telling who "LOL" We girls have privileges .
