248mm San Mai Integral

[BT11]

Finished up this blade a few weeks back. It was a good challenge, and I'm pretty happy with how it turned out. As always there's a couple of things that can probably be improved on, but that will have to wait for the next blade

Some specs:
248x52mm Integral
Wrought/Nickel/Hitachi Blue2 san mai blade
Spalted Myrtle Burl with African Blackwood spacer for the handle
Symmetrical convex grind. Workhorse in the arse up to a thin tip
Balance point was 5-10mm from my mark towards the handle
Weight was around 260 grams.
Thats about all I remember haha

Cheers for looking!
