First knife
                  
                  
                    This is the first knife I made. With this blade I started my career as a bladesmith. As you may understand, it is not for sale.
I used 1058 and gave the blade a martensite quench. Blade length is 17 cm, 3/4 tang. Brass guard and walnut handle (Photograph: H. Brons)
