Thanks guys. I used a 1/16" ball nose carbide end mill for the pull.

Been away from the grinder for over 3 months. I was nervous grinding this blade. 2nd slip joint. S35VN with a stonewashed finish.

This is number 2. S35VN blade. Stone washed finish.

Thanks. I appreciate it.

Thanks. The top knife is AEB-L @ 62Rc, cream spalted maple scales. The second knife is S35VN @ 61Rc, black Warwood scales sanded to 600 grit. I didn't finish the flats like I normally would as it's a test piece. The blade was ground to 750 grit and then stone washed. I grind all my knives after...

Made this regular hunter style fixed blade for a guy in B.C. A new style I'm working on.

Thanks. I was looking at that one but the data drops off at 900F which still leaves the steel around 56Rc.

Interesting info. Any idea what tempering temperature would get the springs back to 48-50Rc assuming they started out at 61-62Rc?

Thanks guys. I appreciate the kind comments.

I completed my first liner lock today. AEB-L blade, titanium thumb studs, stainless liners and white linen micarta scales. I ground the blade post heat treat to 750 grit and then stonewashed it. I like the ground look, but it's a user so I thought it would be best to stonewash it.

I have digital and recently dial. Dial is my go to right now, but I do suffer battery issues from the cooler weather so that could be a contributing factor. I heat my garage, but not to room temp. For angles, I use an Angle Cube on my grinder tool rest and a cheap plastic angle finder on the...

Worked on the scales and back spacer today.

I cut my first lock bar last night.

Nice looking knife. Thanks for sharing.

Very nice knives. Have you ever used AEB-L for blades/back springs?

That is very nice. I want to try a barlow style one of these days.

Thanks. I've seen your posts, I'm sure your first will be awesome.

I've recently been bitten with the slip joint bug and made a couple of pocket slips to go with them.

Thanks. The handle was looking a little bland so I sanded it to 2000 grit and gave it a light buff.

That's a very nice knife.
