    LAURI LEUKU 175, CARBON STEEL

    Posted by old4570 on 3rd Oct 2022

    Overall finish on the blade is about 6/10 .
    Cutting edge 8/10
    Spine is 4/10 or un touched . ( Mould ? )
    The price for what you get is 10/10
    Edge retention is excellent ..
    60HRC file bites / 55HRC file skates .

    My knife feels like an excellent cutter and if your looking to DIY a reasonably large knife for yourself then this blade blank should be seriously considered .

    If you want a more refined edge , then do it before you put a handle on the blank ... ( 5c )

    Man is the steel hard. It took diamond drill bits to drill through for the pins and that was with two broken drill bits. So amazing strong steel and good value.
