6Ear Competition Chopper

[ChattanoogaChop]

I commissioned a comp chopper from a local smith Mak Kelsey at 6Ear Knife and Tool. He hadn't made one before (other than one that was intentionally broken as part of his Journeyman certification) and his forte is super nice chefs knives, but I think it turned out great.. Forged from Cruforge V steel (whatever that is, Mak said it's a newer metal, was tough grinding, and is hard AF) with G10 handles. Here's some footage of us getting to know each other:
