  • I'm forge welding layers of saw mill steel (15N20) together to form the outer layers or jacket for this big chopper. The core is high carbon field harrow spring steel.

    Beautiful peace man! I really love how the edge of the San Mai came out! Apparently Darth Vader was in the room as you were putting a coat of finish on the handle… He must’ve been very pleased!

    This is so cool. During quarantine I started Forged in Fire and am now deep down the youtube hole and learning so much. Broadswords and katanas are fun and all, but this is the kind of blade you can use everyday.

    I wonder what the weight of your knife is?
    (I’m curious because I live in Thailand and smaller sized blades here weigh a good 2+ pounds, which seems a lot for prolonged use. I had many and eventually gave them all away.)
