Super thick FOS sized cleaver type thing with the vertebrae filework....

:devil1:Great file work mo .I have been making sparks fly. i put a couple handles on some ebay blades and i got some cheap steel and have been grind things that kind of loof like knives i have had a blast .I need to buy a 2" x72" belt sander i only have a 4" x 36" makes it hard but sparks still fly. I haet treated one yesterday and it has a good edge on it...when i get my new belt sander can i ask a few questions ? have a great day mo....:devil1:

Careful brother. Addiction is an understatement for what this stuff will get you. Next thing you know you'll start locking yourself in the shop for several days at a time not remembering to eat or drink. Like a mad scientist or a guy that was gifted a box of porn you'll emerge a few days later red eyed and de-socialized and in need of re-integration into society :devilzeek :shockedevil: :devil1:



...when i get my new belt sander can i ask a few questions ?

That cleaver looks great mate, the file work is top notch (pun) and fits the blade design perfectly.

Society is over rated anyway.

Taking too long on the filework:) . Looks outstanding, How the hell do you keep the grind lines so straight? the filework spacing so even? I am just starting out with forging but still have to grind a bit to finish, I am in awe of the makers here.

[M.Olexey]

Thanks guys!

Mike, I just use a ruler and mark off even sections to work in. On this pattern as long as you get the holes that run down the center straight, you can afford to be a little off here and there due to the organic nature of the concept. Hopefully that makes sense.





Society is over rated anyway.

I totally agree :ssmile:
