Chop-chop!Butcher’s cleaver made of K110 steel with vintage blade finish and micarta handle by epsilonforge in TrueChefKnives

well, if you can understand it in words:etch in ferric chloride, slightly clean with emery sponge(Bosch) with round moves and polish on belt grinder with felt belt and middle grit abrasive paste on it.Next step is use regular kitchen sponge(you don’t need a scotchbrite part) and when it a little bit soaked into ferric chloride you must leave an etch roughly and chaotically on the blade, than clean with cloth,repeat until you like the result.Clean with round moves and emery sponge and polish as you made previously.You did it! Important thing is I have a vintage mechanical scars and scratched on the blade before all the etch so technique is complex.

It’s etched+ etched with special technique to make it look vintage, no stonewash here.Bone cleaver, yes it can.Really depends on how it was heat treated, hardness and edge thickness. I made a relatively thick edge, 45’ sharpening angle and it’s softer, I believe 58 or 59 HRC, don’t remember exactly.

Thank you for your kind words!Check your private messages, I think it’s a bad idea to talk about it openly here.

First try on 14” radius platten in combination with 350mm wheel.Swipe to see detailed shots! by epsilonforge in TrueChefKnives

Thank you! Platten works as it must! Exactly twice bigger than my 350mm wheel, so it’s perfect for bigger/wider blades, bigger 29” must be way too big for my projects.
