    Thoughts on quenching with water before or after oil?

    Thanks for the information, gentlemen. I have only seen the oil before water process mentioned by a few people. It makes sense that this is a bad idea, but I couldn't help but wonder if there was something I was overlooking. The water then oil quench is something that I've come across with...

    Thoughts on quenching with water before or after oil?

    Forgive the off the wall question here, but I have seen some 'smiths here and in other forums discuss using water (Usually before, but a few have said after) in combination with an oil quench. I was just curious about the process and or benefits. Could this method be suitable for some steels...

    I apologize for not posting sooner, but I haven't had much time to get on the forum the past few days. I received my knife from Nektarios (NPD) on Wednesday. It arrived very quickly considering it traveled from Denmark. It is a very well crafted knife. The sheath is well made and expertly...

    Wow, Remy.. that's enough to make a guy blush! I just turned on the PC to check the tracking number, but stopped in here first. I'm glad the knife made it safely, but far more excited about it finding a good home. As I'm sure you know, there's nothing more satisfying than having your work be...

    This is the knife I made for the KITH. My friend Kathy came over and took some shots with her professional equipment. She generally does portrait and event photography, and this was her first "still" shoot. I thought she did an awesome job! Here are a couple of the pics:

    3rd Annual KD July KITH

    Thanks! I really wasn't going for pretty (maybe I should have..), although I could see this with a rubbed finish and some nice wood. Honestly, I was really torn about this one... I generally make a drop point hunter or mid size utility for these things. I designed this last fall, but didn't...

    3rd Annual KD July KITH

    Well... I warned you that mine was going to be a little "out there". I guess seeing how everyone is obsessed with a zombie apocalypse and what not, maybe this will find an appreciative home. I'll just call it a tanto fighter rather than a personal zombie dismemberment device. I carried the...
