      Do it. I started with only 40 bucks in tools. A rail road track ( or any large bit of steel to forge on. Or even a tree stump) a pipe, a hair dryer and a bit of wood. Oh and an angle grinder makes things easier.

    Really cool! I've tried it the other way around. Forging the pyramids and grinding flat. Cool to see it done this way. The pattern would have carried through if you forged the bevels even a little bit, but it looks great breaking up the pattern toward the edge.

    • @lewgriffinknives216
      @lewgriffinknives216  21 день назад

      Thanks. I was hoping to offset the pyramids so they would sink into the other side under the press but my measurements were off, using a mill would have been much more accurate! Big fan of your work 🫡🍻

    It turned out beautifully but one thing I'm not a fan of is that there's no machanical conection between the blade and the handle (peening, riveting, etc...) So it will likely serve better as a display item rather than a cutter. No discredit to the maker, absolutely stunning work and I love the pattern.
