Crane Cable Chefs Knife
Last week during the Sunday chat we were talking about making kitchen knives. I mentioned that I was making a chefs knife from crane cable. Here it is. Not quite finished, just spent my New Years day fooling with it.
It's not the prettiest thing. I've made some stylistic errors. I'll test this one as it is a "proof of concept" to see how it performs. The blade was formed from 1 piece of 9/16 cable that was forged into a square, cut at the halfway point, folded and forge welded. Then the blade was forged to shape. The handle and rat tail were formed last. |

Had a great time reading your posts in the Chat JM. I have some of that cable and plan on doing something with it this spring. I'm sure i will have questions for you! Hope to see u on Ray's chat again.
