ZT 0560 blade work

This was a fun project! removed the recurve and fixed the tip to make it pointy again, also modded the swedge. It’s now sitting at about 8 thou thick at the shoulders of the edge with a 15 dps Wicked Edge on it!





That’s fantastic Josh. I need to send you a few knives to re-grind. I’ll go through my collection and see which ones make sense. Maybe my 0560…

Super nice job!

Great work, Josh! It reminds me of the work you did on my Blur.

Do you thin kitchen knives in the same way?

Thanks guys!

 

Yes I do kitchen knives the same way Mark, although you have to be careful not to grind too thin unless the user will be very careful to use it properly.

very nice work

Beautiful job on this refurbishment. Even the swedge and the vertical grind lines are perfect on this piece.
