Thanks men for this topic, a lot of great information. Steve what a great way to terminate the plunge line, I will definitely give it a try.

Steve thanks for your post. I can see that in the last 2 knives your bevel is below the handle line eliminating the plunge line. This makes perfect sense. Have you done any that are full flat grind (taken to the top) and made plungeless?

I have done some this way. I put a post up of a forged O-1 knife I made in a series. You can see it here:
