I really enjoyed making this lovely chopper inspired knife. Sometimes the quick scribblings of soapstone lead to some fantastic pieces. Things I find enjoyable about this one: 1) organic flowing patterns make me happy and I enjoy the slice of a mono-steel edge, so I got the best of each world by sandwiching some 80CRV2 in the middle of 280 layers of 15N20/1095 2) This handle wood from @forrester_woods made a great compliment to the steel pattern with bonus spots of orange highlights that almost makes it look like nature’s paisley… so lovely and feels right at home with 3/32 copper pins and copper liners. 3) the geometry almost comes to a 0 grind. It’s just the tiniest bevel and it cuts so well! 4) It’s got a comfortable fit in the hand and balances nicely just north of the index finger. The @maumasifirearts inspired curled heel aids in the feeling that this knife is connected right to your hand 5) The shape is curvy with nicely flowing lines and that blade height and thick spine allow for that thin edge to be properly supported in the heavy cuts . I hope you enjoy it as much as I do! . #thepxsmith #joshaweston #forgedinfire #knifeordeath #knifenut #knifemaking #makercommunity #productreview #critique #happythoughts #artreview #knifereview #knifeporn #knivesinnature .
