A recent acquisition that of course I had to make new scales, polish and start the honing before I noticed the crack....
This is a huge blade. I have a FR 7/8ths and this thing is a good 1/4 inch longer. That being said. I think I may have some options on some custom grinds. I was thinking about a thumb notch right along the crack, but I was hoping the "EXPERTS" could weigh in on potential options to save this butcher's knife. I was also thinking about changing the tip to a spanish point to compliment the thumb notch.
The crack is about 3/16ths from the heal of the blade and is about 1/4 in long.
