Having a hard time w/ pics and text.
This is a Nickel silver sheath for a knife I did a couple years ago.
It has a removable throat held on with 2 1-72 screws to service the lambskin (veg. tanned) lining.
The clasp is patterned after the Will and Finck type and one Bruce Bump did on a ring hilt...
You're right , no temp. given.
I've done 2 springs in A2 so my experience is limited to say the least.
Looked at my notes:
1080* 2 hrs. = RC 52
1100* 1 hrs. =RC 50-51
2nd spring:
1125* 1 hrs.= RC 47-48
Hope this helps

Helping others be the best they can be by sharing your knowledge, if they are better at some aspect of the process
then you have the opportunity to learn from them and we all are better people.
I am overwhelmed and at a loss for words.
By far the best outlook I've ever encountered.
Thank you
This how feel too but would never have been able to articulate it in such an elegant way!
Thanks Fred and everyone here,
Merry Cristmas and a Happy New Year to all.
Santa (Scott Livesey) came yesterday with great gifts that I will put to use.
A bench vice I installed immediately and Ss pin stock with matching drill sizes.
Thanks Scott!!!
Thanks Ed and Ken
After reading your responce I got the bright idea to go to K & Gs FAQ "will not absorb water".
Ill contact the seller.
Thanks for your help.
I have 2 sets of handle wood from 2 different suppliers, same type of wood bought as being stabilized from K and G. One is shiny and wet looking the other set is very dry looking. I put a little water on both sets the dry one absorbed the water and wet one did not.
So does the wood always come...
Oven went out last night doing multiple pizzas so put the bird on the barbie today, I'm no cook but looks and smells great, we'll know soon.
Have a great day all, enjoy your friends and family.
When you were unchain in it I said to myself, now you just need a pallet jack and the next thing I saw...
I have an A frame with a Harbor Frieght hoist and pipe rollers and not enough concrete surface.
