Oh Dear, Look what he has done !!!
Also a small Kershaw with a different design and un-blackened.
The wife liked it without the blackening !!
Would say it reveals most of the short comings and hides the faults less.
However, we did mirror polish our Graver faces to finish with a nice looking bright and shiny cut.
Would be happy to hear from "The Elite" on corrections and suggestions to improve our work.
Thanks a stack in anticipation.

Arm, I'm not "The Elite" but as Mario already mentioned in your tread about "second" knife, start with a proper design, and show it before you start cutting.
And I'm absolutely sure you don't need "The Elite" to point on what could be better on this one, as also I could tell you.

aRM,
This one is much better except for the mis-shaped scroll at the blade opening cut out and the oversized and over cross hatched leaves at the right end.

Mario and Arnaud gave you some good advise.
Best.

ARNAUD
Your pertinent response definitely now makes U part of the "ELITE".
Don't worry, ever bit of correction is well appreciated.
Thanks a million.

Dear JOHN
Design definitely has to be correct for the finish to be perfect.
Tried hard not to copy verbatim from other's works.
Will need to spend lots more time preparing and designing.
Thanks a mill for the very good advices.
LORD BLESS
