I've been drilling holes in my tang to balance the weight. The 1/4" holes were no sweat, but the last 3/8" hole was a mother bear. I went and got a new bit suspecting that to be the problem. But two drill buts later it just won't cut all the way thru. I got a little impatient(frustrated), and heated up the metal more than I had planned.
So is it not penetrating because my Home Depot bits aren't worth the packaging they're in or is it because my 1095 got harder from the tooling?
And no it hasn't already been heat-treated.
Help appreciated
