Ugh, still can't edit my title spelling mistakes. SlipJOINT!
Ill be using 1/8 inch o1 tool steel. I'm just going to attempt to copy a single blade swiss army slip joint I bought and took apart. I do have a how to video by Chris Crawford. The video is awesome. He shows a very easy way to get your spring ready for the knife using a torch. I was curious if anyone here had any other input as far as tempering or heat treating the spring? I want as much info as I can get before I start on this. I like to read as much as I can before starting a new technique.
Thanks in advance for reading and anyone's input.
