convex grind
Hey guys! so I am attempting to do a small Japanese authentic looking wakisashi the blade will be about 8 in long,,,,its being temepered again as the first round the hammon didn't come out that good. so as long as it looks good this time I am going to start grinding. I want to try and do a convex grind I have only tried this grind once before and it was VERY early on and didn't come out that even...so I can see of 2 ways of doing this I could do basicly a series of flat grinds from the edge up to the spine and then blend it togather and finish on a slack belt. or instead of the series of flat grinds I could kinda rock the blade back and forth to create the curve...I am leaning toward the first option but as I said I only tried this once and it was a long time agao so figured I would see if any one has any advice on this
