Won't be much longer , I think. Did some polishing the the blade flats today. Was pretty tired when I got home form work didn't want to do to much to it,as tired as I was afraid I would screw up. Would hate to have to start all over if I spilled up. Just need to polish out the flats spine, hand and guard more. Pull the bevel back more, then it will go to my wife for handle work. Just hope it doesn't turn off real cold agian, she doesnt do cold well at all.
I'm hoping to have the blade work finshed the middle of this week.
the heat treat and temper went well the blade didn't bent or wrap good and straight. The hardest is where it should be, it will skate my files. Should be appox 58rc

Wow this blade is looking unreal and the design is really unique. Is the little blade next to it a companion blade or another project?

The one next to it is a forge letter opener, the blade on it will bent, so letter opener. It has a 6in blade and will be sharp, even just being a letter opener I tempered the blade.

Lol thanks, that's exactly what I was trying to go for with the design. I'm really picky with aesthetics so some of the knives I found interesting had some parts I liked and others I didn't. I figured I'll go the custom route so that I like EVERYTHING about it since I designed it lol.
