At 1950 . I don't think I want to be fiddlin' with the foil :9: Thanks for the info. It seems like most folks plate quench. So I'm guessing that is for a good reason. I will look around and see if I can find something of my wife's to sell for the dough to buy some nice quench plates. haha

Dang MT! That is some serious productivity ! I have came down with a case of knife maker's block:15: I will snap out of it though.

Very very nice. I must have stared at your fist pic for 5 min. Baleen? I never would have guessed. I think I have a piece, I will have to dig it out.

Hey thanks a lot guys. Does anyone have a suggestion on where to get quench plates cheap? Can you use granite slabs or would they explode like rocks in a fire? What about brass?

Thanks, I will go check out AKS. I'm not looking to send anything out for HT. I just received my Evenheat KO so I want to play.:9:

Howdy folks. I am starting to use CPM154 to make some thin paring knives. Can any of you guys share how you HT CPM 154? I did find a thread on heat treating 154cm but I am not sure CPM 154 would be the same. I thank you all for sharing your knowledge and time.

Great lines. Beautiful design and work. May I ask how long it took you to make it? I made a few knives with files and sand paper but they were fixed blades and one of those was a kiridashi so pretty simple designs and those took me for ever!

I dig that nessmuk! Nicely done!

Thank y'all for the welcoming words! I am liking the forum a lot. I will post up some pics soon.

I want one and I have not even made a hidden tang knife yet. :biggrin:Looks like a quality tool!

I do think you should thin out the tip to match the rest of the edge. You can do it after HT but it will take a lot more time and belts. The most important things are that you make what you like and that you have a good time doing it.

Thanks Fred! My number is 223

Hey y'all, My name is Kevin I just quit my job as a mechanic to make knives full time. I am having a blast! I figured all I wanted to do in my spare time was make knives. So I jumped in head first to do what I love. I live in California my other interests are Cycling (mostly road and track but I...
