Hi all,

it's my first post here.
i had a new belt grinder, knife making is more interesting.

i tried to make a petty, but end up with satoku-ish one. too less pointy.
it is SK5 steel 1/8" thick. HT'ed by self using butane torch

here are the pics

Very cool, thanks for posting. I love seeing what others are doing in the hobby.
 
Nice hamon line - I'm not far behind you - I'm getting a new belt grinder next week.
