Great first attempt Lyuv 
If you find time try and work the top of the blade down so the apex runs the whole length. Robert is spot on about forging thick it works the same with grinding. That is why I always say after you finish your bulk grind have 2mm edge all round the blade;

This a bit thicker but it will give you an idea what I mean. This should be more than enough to finish the blade with. Any grinding marks should come out as you have plenty metal to play with. Otherwise great work
