Over the weekend I had the chance to participate in blade symposium as a demonstrator for the second year in a row . It was a great weekend packed with Information and demonstrations Metal work and different aspects of knife making.
It was hosted at Australian technology park at Eveleigh where once the locomotives were built
The size of the equipment used was mind blowing , the hammers , presses the tongs and the furnaces
There were at least 20 times more hammers like these and tongs
I had a session in sharpening and one session kitchen knives , I hope that I was able to convince more makers to stop doing full flat grind on kitchen knives [emoji23]
Abs MS Bill Burke demonstrated advanced Damascus
Abs ms Shawn McIntyre explaining heat treatment
Keith Fludder giving a lesson in hamons
