Hello Steven,
Guys. You should hear this young man's enthusiasm! He called me one the phone and I don't think he took one breath the whole time asking me if I could help him etc, etc, etc, I am on the other side of the country but I wish we where a lot closer.
It was refreshing to hear such zeal from a newbie! Watch those videos that have been mentioned and get out there and sacrifice a bar of steel if you have to. Start with a simple small little EDC or Capeing knife like we talked about and think in your head what you want it to look like and relay that message to your hands. You want a Full Flat grind bevel on each side of Appox 10-12 degrees. Start there and adjust depending on height & thickness.
Post some pictures of the knives you made in the past that we talked about on the phone so we can see where you are at and try to help you.
