Hey there folks,
I made this pocket widget for my brother. it can be used to open a beer bottle, scrape off glue or gaskets, or maybe even pry up a staple or small nail, or paint can top. I only have O1 in the shop so I used that. Its about 4" long 1/2" wide, 3/16" thick. It have a chisel ground on one end ( .02 thick edge) and a bottle opener on the other.
what hardness should i try to achieve? or will this thing just snap? mid 50s or like my blades, in the 60-62 range?
thanks in advance
Aaron
