@@JonniHill Thank you for being here and enjoying the video! 🙂🙏 and alas that’s the reality of knifemakers 🤣 plenty of scars to show the past 5 years of experience in this trade
Absolutely awesome, best video I've seen in a while. Your explanation and skills are second to none. I wish I was in the position to purchase 1 because I would not waste a second. GOOD LUCK YOUNG MAN. you truly are an artist.
Japanese single bevel knives are supposed to have a concavity ground into the non-bevelled side. This ensures that there are no high spots that interfere with the whetstone making contact with the edge during sharpening.
Ahh Alas; during editing I realized my blunder there and wondered if any would catch that! Thank you haha! Thanks for checking out the video, God bless - Ian
Relaxing vid and alpreciate you orting your body on the line for this knife!

I know your calipers are probably not used for perfect precision but watching you as an machinist it hurts to watch you scribe lines with them😂
5160 isn't "tool steel" it's spring steel
