Hello!
I recently engraved my first knife. It was a collaborative project, where one did the blade (Tommy Jimmerfors), one did the handle and sheath (CarlMichael Almqvist) and some fool did the engraving (Moi...)
Anyway, here it is, it was a carbon steel that he used in the handle. I think it was 15N20.
Oh... Also my first really curved surface that I engraved, that was a challenge all by itself.
The top pictures are the makers, the bottom one is a picture I shot of the spine after I had done the engraving. So before the handle was glued and before it got it's final polish on wood and such.
All pointers are as usual, welcome!
