I laid the screwdriver shaft flat on the heated billet prior to grinding and struck the blade with a hammer creating a series of elongated "dents" that deformed the underlying steel and created the "tooth" pattern.

I have just completed my first laminated steel knife. I bought the 12" X 2" X 3/16" billet from Aldo and it has a 52100 core and an unknown SS outter surface. I am a stock remover not a forger so in order to develop a pattern in the underlying steel I heated the billet to forging temp, laid a...

Where did you buy it? Is it tempered glass?

I couldn't agree with this more if I had written it my self which I was getting ready to do. Wallace

Yes and No. It originally an antique china cabinet with shelves. I took the shelves out and made it into a gun case.

Not on point I don't think, just checking out the armory.

I didn't notice the traffic to be any worse in Clearwater than any place ese I went. here he is.

No Steve, I live in Las Cruces, NM and I would have never spent the money to just come to a Gun & Knife Show in Florida. I just purchased a new English Springer Spaniel puppy from a breeded in Clearwater and had to come over there anyway to pick him up so I checked around and found the show in...

Report from the show. In a word, it was GREAT! Big crouds, lots of nice people, lots of knife buyers and I sold 5 knives over the two days. Total gross was $1,550. For a show that I just went to because I had to be in Tampa anyway, it was fantastic.

Hey guys. I've got to go over to Tampa, FL this weekend to pick up a new English Springer Spaniel puppy. I checked and the Tampa Gun and Knife Show is there at the Fairgrounds this weekend. Since I'm there anyway I signed up for a table. Anybody ever been to this show or know anything about it...

What is the best way to finish a stacked leather handls? Thanks, Wallace

Hey Guys. I use as a container a horozontal (lays down on a takle) aluminum bread bakery pan that is about 16" long and about 5" square. It holds about 1 gallon of Parks 50 and I dont change it much I just keep it full. Is this sufficient or am I kidding myself My blades do skate a file.

Hey, Justin, just saw this thread. You get about the same result as I do with Hamons. I clay them up so cool and when they are finished they look very plane and nothing like John Doyle's. I heat treat in a propane forge with a baffel and a thermocouple. According to my thermocouple I can hold a...

I'm sorry I didn't see your question sooner. Please forgive me for not answering sooner. I shape most of my guards, thin or not, about the first 90% with a Fordon hand tool and then the last 10 % with files and sandpaper. Even this thin the gard seems really strong.

Have no idea. I think full tangs are probably stronger but a lot of people build frame handles and I wanted to see if I could build one.

Don't know what KITH is. Sorry.
