I just remembered that while @martinhuber may send d*ck pics, @RDalman delivered the goods to one member here from the first massdrop

I believe @ian sold the knife but holds tight to that handle still.

It never leaves my hand.

Holding it....tight?

I rub it when I'm feeling sad. It's a good luck charm.

Edit: oh, f***ing fine, @Michi. 3218

I’m constantly changing where I want to end up. Let’s see how long this one lasts.

@BillHanna shouldn't it be

1. Cleaver
2. Cleaver
3. Cleaver
4. Cleaver
5. Cleaver
6. Sujihiki
7. Cleaver
8. Cleaver
9. Cleaver

Current
210 - Kono MM, Shihan
225 - Tanaka x Yohei (240 but it's short), Raquin
240 - Kono MM, MCX Spåre, Kippington

One Japanese, One Western at each length was my plan . Then I got the Kippington and threw my balance off.

I've never seen a cleaver based petty, ikasaki or bread knife before.

 

[BillHanna]

3226

Welllllll….those Spåre bread knives come pretty close. Serrated sakimarus.


A 120mm takohiki would be a petty, right?

9. Cleaver

3227

When I hit the lottery, I’ll do this list. The only parameter would be a flush handle. See how each “artist” envisions their best cleaver.

120mm tall or length? Very important distinction.

As a completely objective observer I fully approve

What are you hiding, Brad? Why can’t The Polishing Knight turn some taters? Why must the sale never be spoken of again, in these hallowed halls?

WHAT ARE YOU HIDING?!?

MH knifemakers diary part 2 - March 23; 2023

Didn't finish the handles today, sad. but tomorrow for sure will, at least i can take some pictures of the finished knives at daylight.
But also working with a new material today, 100% will show off as soon as i finished it, cant wait to be honest.
I kinda love it but it feels weird to grind. Soft yet hard.
Lovely texture. (no more teasers now sorry)

Looked a few minutes at my cleaver today, loved the patina, chopped up a few veggs, made me happy.
ARM is a good thing. Everybody should try it out next year.

End of the day.


Hows your day going guys?

Just ordered a new (another) Norton Crystolon course stone. So far nothing in my thinning stone inquiry to change my mind.

I’ve spent the past couple days getting emotional high fives from leadership types for making them look good to the Joint Commission (people who come and tell you your part of the hospital sux).

As far any real appreciation; I got a 15USD voucher redeemable at the hospital cafeteria lol
