The Smile on Saturday group’s theme for today, 12/18, is ‘reflection in a knife’. Took a bit of finagling but I think I got it!! Now to go look at the group pool and see if someone else had a similar idea. I try not to look before I post……
….(btb, tricky to do this with older stainless utensils that might not stain or get tarnished but can sure be scratched.)
Small Nieto "Cetreria" Bowie knife (Nieto Ref. 4402) with olive wood handle, made in Spain.
The knife has a blade length of only 11.28 cm (4.44"), which makes it legal to be carried in Germany - the legal limit is 12.0 cm (4.72"). Anything with a longer blade may be owned, but not carried.

Macro Mondays - Sharp / Crazy Tuesday - Made of Metal
I have to say that in addition to being literally sharp, I also find this antique, beautifully crafted J.A. Henckels Friodur jack knife to be very sharp looking. It has been handed down through our family over the years and I have it displayed on a table with family photos and memorabilia.

A present to my husband from our son. It has been well used over the years.
Stay safe and well everyone.
Thank you to everyone who pauses long enough to look at my photo. Any comments or Faves are very much appreciated
Created by Alfie Bradley at the Oswestry British Ironwork Centre and made with hundreds of thousands of knifes confiscated by or handed into police across the country.
Traditional Damascus steel, also known as Pattern Weld, Damascene, or Damast, was first produced over two thousand years ago. It has lived in legend and is referred to as the steel of the ancients.
Pattern welding is when different steels are stacked in a pattern into a block or billet, putting them together and holding them with a steel wire until the first weld is in place. The more intricate patterns are often layers of damascus that have been twisted or deformed in some way, cut and stacked in a manner that when welded together gives a very unique pattern to the finished blade.
The pieces are thinned out drastically, and then removed from the furnace where the blacksmith folds the steel over and over; most commonly you will have over 500 layers when the smith is done. The folding and adding of the layers are what makes the steel strong. The whole process is what causes the steel to be as great as it is.
Finally, after the blade of the Damascus knives are shaped, they are placed back into the furnace until it reaches a temperature of 1500 degrees. It is removed and is quenched in oil. The blade then needs to be tempered so it is heated back to 425 degrees for about 2 hours. After it cools, it is sanded with fine sandpaper and sharpened. The etching in the blade is done by using a mix of acid and water to eat away the softer metal revealing that Damascus steel look and feel.
No animals/humans were harmed in the making of this photo. There were, however, tomatos that may have been cut and sacrified in the making of the ketchup.
HMM!

As they say, don't dig your grave with your own knife and fork.
