Got this Caly 3.5 Carbon - ZDP yesterday .
I got it for a ridiculously cheap price in an auction .
I knew it was a bit beaten up , so bought it to play around with and have some fun altering .
The blade had seen a bit of life and was so blunt it was funny . I am also not a great fan of the Caly's blade shape .
I am loving my Delica's at the moment ,so thought I'd try making a 3.5 Delica
So I took it to the belt sander , and ever so slowly and quenching the blade after ever pass I ended up with this .
So far I'm very happy with the re-profile , I also had to spend alot of time on my diamond stone resetting the primary bevel and then finished it off with a 20 degree micro bevel , its super duper sharp now .
I'm still trying to decide what to do to the Carbon scales , it is a bit limiting because they are pinned .
