Thread: Latest project, critiques please

Looks good, the warp looks slight and the edge ok. Just make sure you are honing to the edge.

Yea, did you remove the stabilizer completely?

When you round a heel, I like to leave a little more without a big a swoop so you have a little more heel to shave with. I do use the heel a lot while shaving.

Go easy with the 325 it can cause chipping. Pick up a 600 or 1200 grit diamond file, (Easy Lap) to reshape the edge and stabilizers. It will give you a lot more of control.

You can polish the notch where the blade meets the tang with a paper towel or 1k W&D wrapped over a clipped straight coffee stir stick.

Other than that looks good.
