Well after hearing from someone who knows about metalworking, I spent a couple of hours of sanding. I got my deadname removed from the knife my grandfather made me. And I even got the blade looking…decent. But now there’s a SUPER obvious difference between my work and my grandfather’s.

I have no idea what my grandfather would have thought of me being a girl now, but I KNOW he wouldn’t tolerate sloppy work.

So I still have some more work to do.

(Ignore my room in the background. I know it’s messy.)

Okay, so I don't have a ton of hope for this. BUT. Y'all are a bunch of weirdo nerds, so maybe you all can get this in front of someone who can help.

The short version: I'm trying to find someone (preferably a cool queer person) who knows about metalworking and/or knife making who can answer some questions and help point me in the right direction on a thing.

The long version:
