Thread: Bruno's Blade

A bit of a different project here - one of the guys here (Bruno) forged this blade and ground it up to 80 grit only so that someone could polish it as a project.
The first photo shows it as received then followed by polished. You will notice I modified the heel slightly to tone it down and also just take a fraction off because I couldn't get the right curve on the bottom of the scale. As it was, I was in danger of having a very sharp point protruding below the scale. The scales are rams horn - I usually use buffalo horn but decided to try something different as I intended to leave the ridges - however that wasn't to be so I sanded both front and back.
