TOPIC: Hi from across the pond!

Re: Hi from across the pond! 1 year, 1 month ago #2826

Hi Mark,

Yes, I have a few of Alan Woods knives. The woodlore has a slight hollow grind on the Scandi edge and I really wanted to flatten it so it had a true flat grind. Let me just say it took a lot of time with the 100 grit stone to get the hollow grind flat! I think if I was going to do that again I would get a more aggressive stone. My 100 grit is quite smooth now!
As you say it's about 1cm and so far I have a smooth polish on it and too be honest it's not far from a mirror finish. I'm on vacation now but when I get back in a week I'll posta photo of it.

Cheers

Ed

Hi Ed,

If you can spare the time to take a photograph, I'd really appreciate it. If you did what I imagine you did, the WEPS (and you ) would be amazing.

Hi Mark,

Some things in life are predictable. I got back from vacation and thought that before I take a photo of the knife I would just touch it up. Doh!!! I did of course ruin the finish I put on. So, I'm busy stropping tonight and hope to get a photo up tomorrow.

That's real bad luck, Ed. Success with stropping!
