Few people use them to that point, nor should they, better to grab an actual prybar. right tool and all that. You keep making them thin. |

Some minor things I would change or do differently but it’s all a learning experience. The San mai core was a bit off center and it shows up from side to side, but the high carbon core is on the edge on each side so it’s functional. I also would have preferred to etch my logo on the inside of the scales or something so it’s there but hidden, but none of my electrolytes wanted to take to the titanium. Which I guess isn’t too shocking given titaniums corrosion resistance. I only lost 10 detent balls trying to set it It is very sharp, as to be expected with 26C3. The experience is the best part. Got really close on the right side with the San mai. I think it looks good where it's at. Overall this pic gives it a better blade/handle ratio and the finish turned out. |
