    Default Work In Progress

    Okay, so I decided a while back to attempt a full hollow grind. Well, after some long frustrating hours of trying and failing I finally have something that it worth finishing. The blade is not done, I still have some hand sanding and grind lines to blend and the spine to even out as well as the tang to finish, but all in all I think it's going to be functional. It is made from O1, has a twist in the tang and is 15/16 wide as of now. Comments, critiques, input always welcome. Thanks!

    P.S. The pictures were quick and the picture of the tip isn't the best. I will be finishing it up within the week (fingers crossed) and will post some finished picks. I still have to decide what I am going to make the scales out of. Name:  Full Hollow 001.jpg

    Very nice grind! What size of rollers did you use?
