I love it. Really nice work on those.
Do you keep a bucket of water next to the grinder for quenching?

The DF has the prettiest edge I have seen on a chopper.

Thanks, dogs. It does look cool, but it's really useless on a chopper. I just thought it might be fun to see, and it is not that hard for me to do with the right belts.
Horned, dangerous, and off my medication.

Those are incredible edges. I am going to order some finer belts tonight.
I think your right about the CarbonV kukuri being worth more now. I was stricken by lust. I prefer a satin finish now as well.
I read that really rough(coarse diamond) edged blades cut just as well for most things but I love the look of a mirror polish next to the satin.
A polished edge is not as good for fish and rope but better for wood.
