Thanks, Rick!

This is my favorite blade profile out of the ones you’ve don so far. The hamone is cool looking as well to my eye. Whose knives do you look at for creative inspiration?

Thanks, Daniel! Means a lot coming from you.

So not true lol. All I did was copy. Literally. Well copied and listened a lot. Hmm .... maybe I’m a talented listener? My wife, Laura, would disagree BIG TIME. Haha In all seriousness, though, I compare every one I make to the knives of the big dogs like @J. Doyle for example. I would say...

Gotcha. Thanks

I’m digging that hamon. Nice

I’ll also second what @J. Doyle said about the handle. Trust me, brother, I have been struggling with handle design. It’s almost like drawing someone’s face... bend a curve just a touch too much or not enough, and it’s a disaster. So to come up with an apparently repeatable, unique, still...

Great profiles of both blade and handle!

Those look super nice. Good job!
