[TheForge] So, what are you working on? (was: anybody there?)

[Bruce Freeman]

Deep-cupped ladles are a challenge.  A two-piece, bowl and handle,
riveted, is appropriate.  It's making the deep bowl, especially from
steel, that's the challenge.

I don't know how far you stretch the term "kitchen utensil".

If  you're into scissors-making, a scissors is neat for use on chicken
joints, etc., would be unusual.

For that matter, a small bone saw, using a 10-per-inch hacksaw blade
and having a very deep throat wild be a welcome addition to most
kitchens.  I have a full-size bone saw, 24" blade, and it's too long
and not deep enough.  (Clean the paint and oil off the blade.)
