Could never get into the series, but the Youtube shorts of the same title that spawned it...oh they just kill me! It's filmed about 4 hours from where I live.

Hey Bill,



Everything’s looking good. I have your handle ready for gluing, just have to polish the blade.

 

[BillHanna]

Another big boy has been revealed. More to come, June 23rd. Happy 50th to me.


I think I’ll wrap it, and have the 3yo scribble on a tag.

 

[BillHanna]

Hey Bill,

Knife is done, just gotta take some pictures. While polishing at the final grit, the edge caught the corner of the belt and I got a tiny blue spot, which I thought chasing would only make worse, so I left it. Won’t affect anything but I thought you should know.

You're right. Good memory!

What a beast! That grind looks awesome. I bet it wasn't easy to make it look that even and thin over such a large area.

Please show us some cutting videos : ) That thing is too cool. Ultimate rectangle.

So far, I wish the profile was flatter, and the handle not so smooth. But Hoo boy, is it a big’un.

 

[BillHanna]

Pass around in a week or so?

What is the measurement in mm? Of the balance point, just incase your wondering. Don’t want you getting any ideas.

Looks like only the pinky is going to be left securing the handle based on this...

I just held it like that, and it didn’t feel stupid. But three fingers still works.

Please tell me the band-aid is from something unrelated ?

 

[jprugel]

These are gorgeous.I can't wait to snag my own <3

Completely.

Cut some pork loin with the MSC cleaver.

Yeah baby. That’s the stuff. Perfect profile for me. I only wish it was taller, but that’s purely out of gluttony, not function.

He did the thing.

Next thing you know you’re going to be known for liking square knives. 210x210?
