Finished Forging the Little Integral

Couldn't get more process pics because it was night, but I finished forging out that small integral.

I have been making stock removal knives for awhile, your blog has inspired me to have a go at forging. Now that I have tried forging I really appreciate how well your knives look.; 7:03 PM

What's your plan for the handle?; 4:17 AM

Todd: said...: Thanks, Fabio! I'd really like to put a cholla handle on this one. I have a piece I'm preparing for it.; 10:43 AM

Here is a link to some of my knives/razors. The last two were forged to shape before filing and grinding. All done with hand tools but the hollow grinding. I use a 1X42 sander for that.

Nice job. That's the continuation of the previous post, correct? Love the shape btw.

Normson,

Those straight razors are incredible! Love the work. I would definitely like to see more of it! You should consider a blog... ;)
