Wonderful blades!
I ordered a number of blades and they all came sharpe and ready to go. The finish was excellent and I enjoyed making handles for them. My first knife, ended up needing redoing because the round steel was ground down/bent on one side so when installed it was not in line but pointed upward. I adjusted the angle of the drill on the second handle and was able to get the blade in line with the handle. I checked the other blades and found one more with the same problem, so I adjusted the angle of the drill as needed. They are sharp from the beginning and hold a good edge. I would recommend these blades to anyone who wants to do some wood carving, just check to see if the blade shank is straight, if not adjust angle of drilling!

Well worth the price
This hook knife has been fantastic for the last month or so. Keeps an edge beautifully and strops easily.
I can’t say that I’m the biggest fan of how wide and long the handle is, but it hasn’t caused an issue while carving.
