Description
Are you spending more resources making the same boring, flawed knife?
You have made your first knife, a few maybe, but you still feel like you could improve and expand your skills.
You have joined all forums, scoured the internet for material, but still find yourself a little bit short on information?
Are your knives losing their edge after sharpening them a few times? Are small details of imperfection in your blades bothering you? Do you want to never make those imperfect blades again?
I, Wes Sander, will share with you powerful techniques to take your bladesmithing skills to the next level
In this book you will learn about:
• The most cost-effective way to make a knife
• The secrets of making a Damascus knife in just 9 steps
• How you can make your first sword, in just 17 steps, start to finish
• The secrets of Japanese blade making

• The #1 high-performance steel that you should use to make knives

• 1 blade sharpening tip, to help you create the perfect edge
