Thanks! I got my sculpted muscular arms by doing lots of 12-ounce hammer curls. Oh, wait.. did you mean the zombie knives? They were commissioned by a client who's a huge fan of the Resident Evil movies/video games. He sent me a couple screen-shots and we worked from there.

Thanks again gentlemen! Frank, you calling my knives "clean" is a high compliment indeed, I'll continue to aspire to that. Here's a matched set custom order, ready for final sharpening and cleaning. They'll be on their way to Australia soon. I just couldn't resist having Angie snap a pic of...

Thanks guys, we appreciate your kind words :)

Well apparently I'm dumber than I look, blinder than I thought, or a little of both... can't find it. No worries, it will fade away.

Denny... put down the 'shine jug and pass it over to me.

Outstanding and nicely detailed post, Rob, thank you! While I (slightly) disagree about the order of importance between mechanical fasteners and chemical bonds, I do agree 100% that using BOTH is the way to go. Over-tightening or over-peening is BAD. All you're doing at that point is squeezing...

Testing scrap can't hurt! If you're looking to send out for HT, I highly recommend Peters', they will do any steel you can think of, and do it extremely well.

Just click the link. It's OK, you can trust me. Honest :innocent:

You may find this guide helpful. Here are some Patina Formulas for Brass, Bronze and Copper.

O1 has a bit of chromium and tungsten in it and will require a bit of a soak at temperature to get everything into solution for best results. I imagine it will get more or less hard with the process you describe but might not be the best it can be. 440C has a whole bunch of chromium and would...

Hmmmm, that gives me an idea... :les:

Let's hear 'em! Funny, philosophical or just odd... long as they're PG ;) "The jakes is occupied! Will be for some time." ...and... "There is no clock on my business!!" ...and... "Coon hunt?? This ain't no coon hunt!" - All from True Grit (2010) "I won't be wronged, I won't be insulted...

That's very cool.

I like both versions for different reasons. The 2010 is almost word-for-word from the original novel. Tons of great quotes in both... my favorites, especially when I don't want to be bothered are : "The jakes is occupied! Will be for some time." ...and... "There is no clock on my...

How do I lock a thread I started? I had some steel up for sale and it's all paid for and shipped now. Thanks :)

Here, the local company that services welders, fire extinguishers, and other pressurized stuff handles LN. As I understand it, the trouble and cost associated with LN is in storing and transporting it. You need a Dewar container that can handle it safely, in fact most places can't/won't sell it...

I figured J. Noble Daggett would show up :)

A lot of guys just use their favorite sandpaper and stick it on the disk with removable spray adhesive.
