181 "ALCHEMY" by Jensen Knives

181: Checking to see where I’m at with this grinding process. You can easily tell what has happened, as the blue is obviously no longer on the areas where I have removed material. You can still see the blue in the center handle core especially, which indicates that I have not yet taken off all the high, excess spots on the bolsters. Be careful as you are grinding more and getting closer; you just want to kiss the bluing off of the core. Do not continue to grind past, as you would now be changing the overall shape of the knife from the initial design. Also, remember to change to a finer finishing grit belt as you are nearing completion.
