As I move towards presenting for my JS test next year I am working to come up with process for all of the sticking points that I identify in knife making.
Plunges are a PITA for everyone.
Today I tried this process.
Pics are as followed.
Knife is ground to about 500.
I have several EDM stones to polish the plunge and then use 3.5 micron diamond paste and a small buffing wheel on my rotary tool to polish it out.
This is the result.
All feedback is welcome.
Thanks for looking.
That looks pretty good! I'm ironing out my own processes for my JS knives, too. I wouldn't trust myself to set the plunges with a rotary tool! Is it a trick of the light or is the edge kind of rounded on the right side (when looking at the edge)? I tend to struggle with rounding over that leading corner.
Verycool, thanks for the share
