That's cool. What kind of wood you going use for the handle?
Wasn't quick enough to ask. Nice work.

How come you have a cut-out in front of the Handle?

+1

The "cut-out is called a "choil", usually accompanied by filework or cross-grooves atop the rearmost inch of the blade, to facilitate "choking up" on the blade with the thumb & 1st finger ahead of the crossguard to accomplish close/fine work.

The "choking up" allows any blade to be used as a shorter blade, safely.

How do you temper the blade after working it, and what is the hardness?

Great work, really good looking knives. I'll have to think on a design, I'd be proud to own one of your knives.

I like the look of them. They're conceived in fire and born under the hammer, they should wear some of that so those who appreciate good breeding can mark them.
