.austria is right around the corner! So here's a flip through the full lineup of what I'm bringing to the show.

Can't wait to nerd out with all of you 😉!

Individual posts for each of them coming over the next few days up to the show.

That’s one more for .austria ! Freshly assembled (so fresh there’s still a bit of wax squeeze out left around the tang, because someone forgot to remove it before filming 🙈).

This gyuto was originally forged last year and was intended to feature a twist sumi kurouchi, but the hard layers in the sumi just wouldn’t turn bright in the kurouchi so I kept getting a full black kurouchi. I put it aside and thought it probably wouldn’t see the light again, but I ended up looking at it a few months ago and noticed that it was forged very thick. So I thought it might be thick enough for me to do a full convex grind on it and it was!
So this happy accident has turned into my first full convex kasumi bl@de, fully finished on jnat’s to show off this gorgeous twist sumi!

The lovely block of boxwood burl for this handle was gifted to me by 🙏. I’ve paired it with a micarta top-cap and “pearled” brass spacer.

KSA very soon👀!

My tamahagane honyaki, wedge takedown gyuto for Knifeshow Austria 🇦🇹

There’s a lot of human connection and sharing of techniques that went into making this project possible. For which I am deeply grateful 🙏
- From my time in Japan two years ago at Workshop Kurogane with 林信哉 sensei and Jesse Cunningham teaching me how to make the tamahagane in this bl@de from beach sand magnetite.
- Rockchop Knife Co kindly sharing his techniques for etching honyaki, which truly has been a game changer!
- A generous customer gifting me the beautiful block of mulga that went into this handle.
- Simon Krichbaum - StorchenKlinge inspiring me with his wedge takedown construction (Respect to him for making them look so easy, they’re damn hard!)
- and Kaz Ichikawa -jewelry artist- for helping me when I was desperately struggling with the Hido patina on the handle inlays!

I guess you could say this project is in the same spirit as KSA of coming together as makers and sharing our love for the craft.
At least that’s my thoughts.

I can’t wait to show it to you all at KSA very soon!

And at last a few specs for the nerds 😉

-bl@de: 240mm x 49mm
-steel: tamahagane, abura honyaki
-distal taper: 3,6mm - 2,2mm - 0,8mm (20mm from the tip)
-handle: wedge takedown construction, hyperbola handle in curly mulga with Hido patinated copper top-cap, butt-cap and inlays.
-weight: 249g

Hope y’all like it and please ask away if there’s any questions.
👋✌️

Sneak peek at the finished tamahagane project for Knifeshow Austria 🇦🇹
This has been my most challenging project to date!
I have learnt a lot in the process of making it and I'm excited to further develop those skills in the future.

Can't wait to properly show it to you all very soon, both on here and at KSA later this month! Where it will be available.
