The blade shape started out as a spear point, I was wanting to do a edge quanch to get the nose to come up alittle. So I edge quanched it in warm brine three times to get it straight.Temper 3 times Etched in vinger.

Really nice work- you don't see that blade design much but I like it and the handle details. Impressed that you can manipulate the tip with your quenching.
