Katsura AUS10 damascus blanks; 8" chef, 6.5" chinese cleaver, 7" Santoku and a 7" Nakiri. They all came without the Logo, matching Mosaic pins and gift boxes. Cost about $291/set.

Amatuer Buck 110 Custom Project -1/10/2014 Update

As some of you may know, recently I have caught the 110 bug. I've been buying older used 110's on eBay out of curiosity.

This project will consist of a complete tear down, cleaning, New Damascus blade and scales. Plus, re-tasking the old blade into a usable fixed blade. This blog will be updated as the project progresses.
