Ulu Knife Cheese Platter
Published by David & Laura Speer
Were a Metro Detroit, Michigan, couple – second marriages for both of us – and we dream of retiring early to Travel the World. Follow us while we try and figure out to raise our kids, and save to retire. David is a Robot Programmer, Laura is a Medical Physicist. We put our kids before ourselves for years, saved and ate at home and now after years of all this sacrifice and raising our kids - we are closing in on empty nesting, and we realized we have the opportunity to retire earlier than most and follow our dreams to travel the world. How are we going to do this? Well we have a lot of ideas, but lets see how it works out. Our original retirement date was January 1, 2021. We are reviewing the option of working another 3 years but prefer to keep the 2021 date, either way we will be retired by 55 years old - still trying to figure out how, but working toward our goal everyday, while enjoying each other and our blended family. Follow us to see what happens. All images on this blog are copyright (c) View more posts

I wonder how that beautiful pattern is carved on the surface.

The cool part is it is not carved it is the metal itself, it is called Damascus steel. You take many piece of steel and push them together an then pound them flat on the top, so your seeing the top part of each piece of steel, then make the metal from there, it is supposed to be stronger than typical steel.

I didn’t know Damascus steel. Thank you for an informative reply. I searched the word and understood that your knife is really cool.

Thanks Andy, I only learned about it recently as well. My husband watches a show called forged in fire, it’s a knife making competition, and learned about it while watching with him.

It is special, they are very useful for so many things, in Alaska – used from anything like skinning animals or cutting hair we learned, but I like it as a party cheese slicer. You are really lucky, they are very cool. Your friend must really love you!
