Awesome looking knife! I love the blade shape and chisel grind.

I'm working on making knives myself. Would you be willing to take a closer picture of the ground side so I can study it a little? If not, that's cool too.

Wowser, really unique look; looks like a workhorse too. What steel is it?

Some video of him grinding. Don't know if that helps or not..

Fast forward to about the 6 minute mark on this one unless you're interested in his shop.

Hard to get good photos the way it's polished. Here's the best I could do.

Those are perfect! I was interested in the overall chisel grind going the full width of the blade, which I like. I also wanted to see the edge grind which is very unique. The blade doesn't taper much from base to point either which is another interesting design element.

I won't copy his designs, not in my nature, but I may mimic some of his ideas, especially the high/full width grind. I really like that aspect.

Thank you for taking the time to do this for me.
