That's nice! Is there a secret to getting the swoop in it or did you just pound on the edge? It looks like a very even bend.

DC When you hammer one one edge it naturally curves the blade. I didn't want to touch the spine because I wanted to leave the serrations from the file.

From the looks of the Classic pictures it wouldn't get a lot of use >:D
