And in the sprit of bring this back to forging. I have always found that the
thought process that if a knife is not made from the best materiel (for a
knife) the knife will not work or is useless. In history there a many
wrought iron knifes (no steel) bronze and copper knives. will these knives
last forever... no. Will they hold a edge for a long time... no. Will they
cut and work for there job. yes. Sometime I feel we get suck in the modern
world and forget that there are others that want more or a different view of
a knife.
