That taper ended up scary thin. Measured it at 0,16mm

This is the first time I've used Camphor on a knife. Did quite a bit of turning with it when I was a kid. It has been stabilized and it turned out harder than I expected.

Blade: N690 Bolsters: 304 Stainless steel Scales: Camphor burl

304 is what I have available. 416 is nice to work with because it is magnetic and can therefore be held down on a surface grinder with a magnetic chuck. It is also easier to work. Unfortunately it is not freely available where I live.

This is the first time I've worked with Damasteel and I'm very happy with how it turned out. Blade & Spring: Hakkapella Damasteel Bolsters & Liners: 304 stainless Scales: Sable horn

The blade shape is a 1 arm opening or amputee design. After WW2 or WW2 (not sure) many of the men came home with an arm or hand missing. The idea is that you can hook the tip on your trouser pocket or the edge of a table to assist in opening.

Thanks Dennis
