I like it too. I have a love-hate relationship with very angular design features. Most of the time I strike a balance, but change is fun too

I have a variant of that in the next batch. Same edge profile but with a gradual curve to the spine instead of the reverse tanto thing.

Haha yah I went ham behind the grinder. The blue one is going to be my go-to from this point on

I have a friction folder (check my posts). I generally stick with fixed blades.

I do earth toned knives sometimes. And glad to hear it :)

These are $275 shipped. The yellow one would be a perfect pairing knife if it had thinner stock.

It'll be up on vanguardforge.com tomorrow! If it's going to be used exclusively for kitchen work I'd prefer to do a custom build for you.

Thanks! Lately I've found myself drifting towards a couple of strictly utilitarian designs. Knives are way more fun when they can be used.

They do retain in the hand like a mother f*cker.

I design them to be good at light food prep first and utility tasks second. It's most of what I use knives for.

Sharp belts. It work hardens very quickly, and gets very hot when grinding gets inefficient, so avoid dull belts like the plague.
