This is my 1st attempt (be gentle) making a full tang blade, I’m not sure if the scandi grind is right but it is razor sharp.
I've been working on these blades for a couple days now and they are almost ready for HT.
They are 3mm thick Stock removal 01steel with some simple filework.
Overall length 165 mm and blade height of 25mm and its cutting edge is 65mm.

The 3rd one is one of Duncan’s dsk blade blank grinded by me with some simple filework.

I hope my first try comes out with similar results! Looks real good to me!

Are you going to heat treat it yourself or send off?
