I made a couple kiridashi a few days ago... they're wonderful tools, and yours is FAR more aesthetically appealing than mine. You are a professional, though. I'm just a tinkerer.
Until now I had no idea that I needed a little scalpel with brass inlays for the handle.... But do I have to go to medical school now? Sweet stuff, I really appreciate that streamlined look. It looks like a futuristic antique. Do keep on doing this kind of stuff, it's unique, I don't see much real style in the market these days. Mass produced junk doesn't hold up anyway. You hardened and tempered, which is something that the factories skimp on. I would trust that blade in a situation, it would be more than enough.
You must really enjoy making these this is the sixth video doing it, I'm not complaining just making an observation. The quality of your work is outstanding and beautiful and I enjoy watching it, have a great new year brother.
Beautiful finish dude 👏👏👏. Happy New Year Koss. Thanks for all the treats this year, and please let's have more more more of your fantastic creativity and workmanship in '23 🙏. 😎
Happy New Year Koss! May this new year bring all that you wish for with Joy! Thanks for another great year of videos and beautifully made knives. Love that this has the "Stealth" look and heavy enough to handle most work. Hat Tip, ~ PJ
Weird request - could you take some of the cutoffs while hogging off excess steel from the original shape of some pieces and use those to make a canister “Damascus” blade?
Thanks for putting out content. A observation, the milling machine will do a great job of cutting the straight lines around the edges of your blade and save you money on abrasives. Also you stuff looks awesome, but you do not put your name on your work. In 20 years the knife will be out there and people will have to guess who made it.
I think you have a scammer using your chat, i got a message stating I won a prize in comments, it said to contact you on another app to claim. The message appeared on your stone handle knife. I erased my chat comment so others don't get taken in. I like your knives, you and Royer are the best on youtube thanks for your attention
