you are very talented! maybe try to learn hand engraving. it's really something else and next step imo. i recommend Ford Hallam's Japanese Metalwork Channel.
Freerk, im interested in commissioning a "pig stabber" style of knife, the blade being 15" long, the handle to your typical black-simple-elegant design. I'm in Australia and i don't know the legalities of importing what will be a long knife assuming blade @ 15" and handle @ 6" I'm looking for your typical elegant yet robust design. Given ive been watch your work for years i know what you'll produce would be brilliant..... i forgot, im after a heavy piece a knife excluding scabbard approaching .75 - 1kg in weight. Most of all im after simple, slim and heavy.
