On the workbench today. Establishing the distal taper, later adding a slight convex portion above the main cutting edge. Took me a few knives/years to get it right.

Inspired by @theuglymachine.bsky.social‬ to post a video with a Hamon. Good luck with your clay 😁👍

The latest kitchen knife to leave my workbench. 52100 steel blade, handle made of stabilized wood and damascus. #knifemaking

For the steel nerds and makers out there: I built myself a surface grinder attachment. I'm just a thrifty person and think I can do it myself🤣

A little bit of anodized titanium combined with a charred oak handle.

I actually specialize in kitchen knives. The laws in Germany are now so strict when it comes to carrying knives. However, this blade complies with the regulations. No more zombie apocalypse knives 🤣 #knifemaking

Biathlon Ruhpolding

A good chef's knife is not just a flat bar of steel with a symmetrical flat grind.

If anyone wants to Support us makers it would be apreciated! www.change.org/p/stop-syste... #knives

Day 3: Following the violence, protesters have returned and set up their tents once more. 👌❤️

Everytime I try to upload a video it gets rejected for not being under 60 seconds.. Is there a way around this?

Say it: "This ingrate owes his fortune to the United States and this is how he rewards us: by constantly lambasting our culture on social media, chit-chatting with our enemies and lecturing us about how we need to be less woke — sorta like that doomed regime he grew up under...."

It appears the results in Pennsylvania are not going to someone's favor thus far.. Isn't it a bit too early to be crying?

This sort of thing must burn Elon more than anything else. Elon considers himself a technocrat, and is in love with AI. LeCun is, alongside Bengio and Hinton, one of the godfathers of deep learning. It's like being a huge Lakers fan and being personally dissed by LeBron James.

Die @nytimes.com fasst Trumps Pläne mal so zusammen, dass auch der Dümmste keine Ausrede mehr haben wird:

Yeah... Fighterbomber suddenly realized that the Russian army is an army of criminals, allowed to do whatever they want. Dear, let me share a little secret – your entire country is like that, starting with your so-called "president," who is, in fact, just a gangster and the leader of a mafia state.

🇺🇦⚔️🇷🇺 South Korean intelligence, using AI facial recognition technology, identified a North Korean engineer involved in missile launches near the front line in Ukraine.

My latest weekly update and Big Five recommended war and national security readings is now available. The update this week focusses on the many political developments with the war in Ukraine. You can read it at the link below. mickryan.substack.com/p/the-big-fi...

Die letzten 40 Jahre in Deutschland: CDU/CSU: - 32 Jahre Kanzler - 28 Jahre Verkehrsministerium (davon 21 Jahre CSU!) Grüne: 0 Jahre Kanzler 0 Jahre Verkehrsministerium Wer laut Markus Söder (CSU) an einstürzenden Brücken, lahmer Post & verspäteten Zügen schuld ist: Die Grünen! #SoederRucktritt

Wer sich als Abgeordneter weigert, die Demokratie vor Rechtsextremisten zu schützen, verdient es nicht, in einem Parlament zu sitzen.

I can't comprehend why the West has exchanged FSB agents for other FSB agents #ukrainianview

Here is a tiny tulwar! I was inspired after a visit to the royal armouries museum to try remaking a few Indian weapons, but the craftsmanship on many of them is so detailed that it’s hard to find plainer examples that I can manage! #Miniatures #Swords #Blacksmithing
