Recently, I decided to try carrying a small fixed blade for my edc instead of a folder. I am a big fan of the Loveless knives and this is what I came up with.
Andrew,
Thanks for the compliment!
I used a file jig I made from some 0-1 scrap to get the plunge lines started and the bit that touches the guard straight.
Then I ground the bevels on a sears 2x42 belt grinder. I stayed pretty far back from the edges out of pure fear :P
After, I hand sanded...
This is my third knife.
I made a dagger at the request of a friend. It is 1095 with a wenge handle and bronze fittings. The blade is 5.5" and the knife is 10.5 OAl.
Thanks for looking,
Jim
