    Taking the dive into knife making

    Thanks Laurence. The lines and craters you are describing is exactly what's happening. I was thinking I somehow caused the unusual wear, but can't figure how it would be possible. I don't have a 4x36, but do have the 9'' disk sander. You think this would work?

    Taking the dive into knife making

    Thanks Laurence! Unfortunately my cheap 8'' HF drill press doesn't go any slower than 760rpm. I know it's way too fast, BUT it's all I got for now.

    Taking the dive into knife making

    Finally felt in good enough shape today to get on the grinder. Boy am I glad that I started with the 1084 blanks, everything was botched. These are my first 4 blanks. One will be a full flat grind. Any positive feedback appreciated.

    Kamisori (Japanese Razor) WIP
