AHHHHHHHHH! I love it, Dad! It's so pretty...that blade is remarkable. Is there anything you can't make a sharp object out of? You would be valuable in prison :)
The process of knife making is a connection to the earliest of human spirits. The flaked stone cutting edge was the basis of food, clothing, shelter and protection. For this reason, I place spiritual importance upon the forms revealed in the making process.
I write of forms revealed, as their creation is exactly that, a revelation. Placing steel into a fire is always an act of faith. From that moment, the maker must follow a path, always with the feeling of being led, to a conclusion. On this journey, he must always remain aware that the beauty of the final product is not nearly so important as the joyous walking of the path and the discoveries made along the way.

That is the best use of an old saw chain ever!! I love the look of the blade.
