Some time ago a friend asked me to make him a knife. His exact words were: "Make me a teacher's knife!"
So I started thinking what could a teacher do with a knife. Finally I figured out, that he can sharpen a pencil, peel an apple or cut his veins, watching what a new generation is growing.
So I decided to make a small, fine knife, to contrast the owner (I am 186sm high, about 110 kg, and look tiny next to him).
I already had the blade - the same like "The baby sister". But I wanted to make the bevels a bit higher and to thin the cutting edge. When finished, the thickness ot the edge was less than 0,1mm. OAL 170, blade only - 70x20x3mm.
The handle is rotten oak with red fiber spacers. Аfter shaping it is impregnated with linseed oil.
I decided to make the sheath as if it is 100 years old (don't know why, but I like it).
