@Kippington I think somewhere in this thread you mentioned moving to 52100 because you needed a full hardening steel. Is this because of the asymmetry?
I can hardly blame you man, that is a gorgeous pattern!Oh, and i'll have also to thin more the edge, and adding a hollow grind there. So far, it is a flat grind.
I was too scared to destroy this damascus blade, i played it on the safe side...
OG hook grind still going strong and still has that 60 belt finish on the bevel because…

Be nice to the poor grinder@Kippington are there any honyaki hook grinds out there?
Differential heat treated???...That would look good, but that may be alot of work.@Kippington are there any honyaki hook grinds out there?

Um... not that I'm aware of? Maybe the prototype I made (@Homechef's one above) has a differential HT, but I can't really remember...@Kippington are there any honyaki hook grinds out there?

Thanks!This is amazing dude !
Double concave grind ! You must have hard time not overheating the edge...
Thanks!
Overheating is easy to do on thin grinds, but I use a jig which makes helps me to move the blade back-and-forth along the grinder, quick enough that heat doesn't build up in one spot. I use a water spray too.
