About:Me llamo Osvaldo Julio Schiavoni I speak Spanish, not English. I use automatic translators for writing my instructables. I am retired since 01/01/10; 010110=x'22 (el loco! (the crazy))
The edge is harder than the rest of the knife. I harden the whole knife and then soften the spine & the tang using a torch. The edge stays harder. So it holds a good edge. Only needing to be honed, not sharpened. Under normal use you may need to sharpen it once or twice a year. Great for cutting steak!
I look forward to making a Schiavona, a famous sword, to hang it in my living room. But it would be a great challenge for me, very difficult. My surname is Schiavoni, I could brag "it belonged to my great great grandfather at Venice!".
Thanks, Kate. I have simple ideas because can't have more elaborate ideas. It is a fact, nor good neither bad. Or may be I would say it is good and bad simultaneously.
Me alegra mucho encontrar alguien q conose espanol...Hablo espanol de mexico entonces dices palabras raras y yo tmbn...pues ahora somos conocidos ! Ciao
Tengo entendido que el español (castellano, en realidad) va ganando terreno día a día en USA. Leí que se espera que para mediados de este siglo va a superar al inglés en cantidad de hablantes. Creo que la coexistencia de idiomas es enriquecedora de la cultura popular.
Veo que produces muchos instructables, 16 en poco tiempo. Yo miro solamente los que son de mi área de interés: mecánica, herrería, carpintería, aparatos en general y alguno que otro que despierta mi curiosidad. Los de cocina, costura, tejido, etc, los ignoro olímpicamente. No me alcanzaría el tiempo para darles una mirada a todos.
