Mom's Knife

Ray, Sorry I missed the Kitchen Knife KITH. I had originally started this for the KITH, but time (lack thereof) forced this into a Mother's Day present.

It's from 0.130" AEB-L stock and has 416 bolsters, blue/red dyed stabilized bird's eye maple with brass pins.


I had to shorten the blade by almost 1/2" as the foil envelope slipped from my pliers when taking it out of the oven. It hit the concrete floor tip first. A note to the newer guys who worry about making mistakes! LOL

I think Mom will still like it.

Dan

I'm sorry you missed the KITH too, we would have been very lucky to have that knife on the list ...

Yup, bummer that wasn't in the kith...next time! But I'm sure your momma is thrilled with it! Well done!
