Oh yeah, the Desert Camo ones also have black G10 bolsters, just in case you didn't notice.

Morning All, Figured I'd let y'all know about Boss's new Kirinite grip material. It looked interesting, but I was hesitant to try it since it looked kinda pimpy and was afraid it would have a plasticky feel. Went ahead and tried some anyway in Desert Camo, Patriot and Lava Flow. I have to...

Somewhere around 20-22 inches deep, 6" tall and the 8" wide is good

That's pretty awesome Bossman. Any thoughts about adding one later that is a touch bigger?

This has been my daily carry for a while now. Elmax stainless steel, 8" blade, dymondwood grips. Carry it horizontally, IWB at an angle across the SOB.

Dojo, my Bernese Mountain Dog, on his way to about 130 pounds

Been working on this one for a while. SEER-X Mk V, polished, file work, black and red/black g10 grips with white liners and spacers. And before anyone asks, yes, I collect minerals, yes, I'm a closet geek, bite me.

Here's its little brother. Wrath Elmax Mk V. 3/16" Elmax, polished. those are clouds reflecting in the blade

Meiyo Elmax Mk VIII. 8" blade, 13" overall, 1/4" Uddeholm Elmax Stainless steel, Dymondwood grips.

I started off using warmed canola, but now use brine exclusively for 1095 in all thicknesses from 1/8" to 3/8". Only had one blade crack but that was my fault for grinding it to thin, and rarely have any warpage, again only when I grind them too thin.

I happened to find a turkey fryer setup on sale for $25 at a local Lowes. 5 gallons of quenchant, has a thermometer built in and I can use the burner to heat the quenchant, brine in this case.

Resolute Heavy Mk IX. 3/8" thick 1095, 9" persian inspired blade, 14" overall and a CAMO G10 grip with integrated knuckle duster.

No worries man. You can do stainless without cryo, just depends what you want out of a knife. And kitchen knives get mineral oil, not veggie oil. Veggie oil will go rancid after time whereas mineral oil will not. I use mineral oil on all my knives, even my daily carry zero tolerance. Mineral...

I just heat treated 1095 with a brine quench today. 14 blades ranging from 1/8" thick to 3/8" thick. No pinging and the only one to warp slightly was the only double bevel in the group. All the single bevels came out straight, perfect and harder than a hookers heart.

Here is the link to the plates: http://www.usaknifemaker.com/heat-treat-ovens-and-accessories-heat-treat-accessories-c-57_115.html Here is what was made from the Elmax (the bottom one) And for treating I foil wrap the blades (the foil is on the same page as the plates), put them in a cold...

I just treated 12 Elmax blades today and have another 12 to do tomorrow. No problems at all. The quench plates from Boss are the bomb.

Yeah, I tried 1/4" thick C-channel and 1/4" bar stock. Next I going to pick up some square tubing.

Woot, it's finally straight. Now I have to harden it again and watch, it'll probably go back to boomerang....

It's in an Even Heat oven. Just took it out, yet again and have it all clamped up. It is insanely curved to the other side this time. Using 2 wrenches, one at the tip and one on the skullcrusher, on one side and another wrench pushing on the apex on the other side. I found one problem in all...

I'm on the hunt for a good sized brick right now. Goodbye cruel world. Is there a limit to how many times a piece of metal can be heated and messed with? Gonna take it to 1475 and try again.
