This is my knife so far. Started as a 3/16x2x12 piece of 8670 flat stock. Cut a majority of it with an angle grinder, then spray painted the profile and removed the paper. Cleaned it up the rest of the way with the 1x30. I got the holes drilled out for the pins. Not sure if I got the wrong kind of drill bit, the blade was hardened a little from the grinding/cutting or if my drill gun isn’t strong enough but it was very difficult to make them. I got a drill jig to ensure a 90 degree hole but I’m wondering now if it was worth it. I plan to start on the bevel and handle this week. I’ll post a few more pictures of the what I have planned in the coming days. Also, wish me luck on freehand grinding my plunge lines! I’ve heard ignorance and confidence make good grinds.
