    How thin?

    I recommend no thinner than .015-.020 on steels that do not need an oil quench. Oil quenching steels need to be a bit thicker, maybe up to .030. Any thinner & you stand the chance of getting an edge that looks like cooked bacon. Brad

    Rickey, The 3V should be comparable at 60RC in edge-holding to the D2 & ATS-34 & also much tougher. Brad

    D2 Blades heat treated and cryo'd

    Also when two different steels or steel & graphite contact each other at high heat(1500F or higher) they can create what is called a eutectic, superheating & melting/burning both surfaces. I've seen it happen on a BAD day. Brad

    This is all new to me. I'm going to have to experiment a little to figure out how much time & effort will be involved. I'm confident that I can do it properly, just need to give it a try before I go out on a limb. Thanks, Brad

    Wharnie

    Hey Frank, great looking knife, I really apreciate getting to see the finished blades. Don't sell yourself short in the filework category, it turned sweet from my view. And the spalted maple, good choice! I'll be on the lookout for your next batch. Brad
