Hi, my name is Michael and most of the time i have spent on knives.pl and knifeforums.com, but I have registered here recently.
My friend who is knifemaker in Poland has asked me recently to design a perfect knife for me:
This is what I have decided so far
Blade length 225-230mm
Blade width 49-50mm
Blade thickness 2 - 2.5mm
Steel: N690 or D2 (61 HRC)
Grind: I have problem with choosing right grind: Full Flat 60/40, 70/30 or Convex (I've seen SaltyDog's videos comparing different grinds)
Knife shapes that I find interesting:
Murray Carter
Devin Thomas ITK Western
Konosuke HD
Takayuki Grand Chef Wa
Some of the examples of his previous work:
