    "wetter" green chrome rouge

    I am ever the optimist Mike. Or, by the time I figure it out, in my retirement I'll be able to open a buffing compound museum.

    "wetter" green chrome rouge

    I'll continue to update/document my trials here. I received the Empire stuff and tried three of the four bars I ordered. It's greasier than the previous bar I got from USA Knifemaker and it sticks decently to buffs. I tried both green and blue on cork belts and found them to be OK, but still...

    "wetter" green chrome rouge

    Based on a tip from Mike, I have ordered some compound from Empire abrasives. I talked to them before ordering and got the impression that theirs are not so dry. I ordered all of the rouges I typically use, so I will report back if they work out well.

    "wetter" green chrome rouge

    Thanks Kevin, I may have to give it a try. I've been out of things for a while and I can't remember where I got my previous bar or who made it, so I'm kind of stuck with just buying different ones until one works. But, with the way things change over time, who knows if anyone even makes the...

    "wetter" green chrome rouge

    Can anyone tell me what green chrome they use that's kind of greasy? Looking at USA Knifemaker, their green rouges are all listed as "dry". I didn't notice that when I ordered it and found the rouge to be a lot dryer than I used to use. I would like to find one that's a little greasier...

    Surface grinder table stuck

    Hey Mike, cool pic of you two. Since we've only known each other since after you retired, I never even knew the two of you were once that young :cool: Nanc swings a bigger hammer than me, apparently.

    CPM-154 Hardness

    I would ask Peters if they can do a low temperature temper and cryo treatment for you. I am told they will do it for 3V. If they target 61RC you'll be very close to maximum toughness for CPM154 and have very good edge retention.

    Old but new...

    Hey Mike, Next time we chat, let's go over our new super alloys together ;) Our mutual friend already has me ready to load up on some as soon as I work through the O-1 that USPS is dilly-dallying about delivering. Cap

    Hey old buddy. I figured I'd find one or two familiar faces, but didn't think we'd be running into each other ;)

    I'm not sure how active they are now, but it has been around quite a while. We had a decent membership when I joined and I learned quite a few things from members and meetings. Generally good bunch of folks.

    New Around Here

    I don't know who all is around these days, I've been off knife forums and out of making knives since about 10 years ago, but if I know you, hey again. If not, nice to meet you. I'm finally able to get in a shop again and make some knives and I'm looking forward to learning and sharing here. I...
