Michael Hemmer's Forged Knives

Al pointed out recently the cool forged knives made by Michael Hemmer, a blacksmith in Oregon. He makes a cool looking black cleaver for $US 60 and lots of other knives.

Unfortunately, my propensity for procrastination when it comes to washing dishes would not be good for these knives since not being made of stainless steel they would rust! Definitely worth checking out, however, for those who take better care of their knives!
