Thank you guys for the kind words.
It is a conventional grind, I have been thinking about trying an asymmetric but have not done one yet.

Very nice Charlie.
How long is the blade & how did you finish the wire ends ?“The white gleam of swords, not the black ink of books, clears doubts and uncertainties and bleak outlooks.”

The blade edge is about 2 3/8 it is about 6/8 wide.
The wire end on the tang end was put in a drilled hole then soldered in. on the end by the blade I soldered the coils together so that it would not unwind.

Neat job. I could see the solder but not the tags
