ok I have a knife that I have been working on for a customer. Well I have had to make 4 blades so far becuase everytime I ht it it will warp bad and then crack. All 4 have done the same thing I have used different methods of ht such as salt brine, canola oil and parks 50,everyone has done the same thing (this is Aldos 1095). I have tripple normalized each blade before ht and they still warp real bad and all crack in the same place. . Well I had this bright idea where I am going to ht the blade first and then grind the knife without getting it too hot. Will this work?I am at the point were I am really frusterated. This has never happened to me before.Will my idea work. I know others fo it for smaller knives but this is a large bowie knife with alot of grinds.
