    Removing Stainless Discoloration Heat Treat

    Hello all, looking to see what the best way is to remove this discoloration from the heat treatment of this AEBL stainless. I do have some texturing along the flats of the knife I'd rather not sand away if possible. Didn't know if buffing wheel or scotchbrite wheel would be best. Thanks!

    End Mill for Bearing Pockets in Ti

    I have been using the AKS 3/16" bearing that are .373" in diameter. Up until now I have been using a 13/32 carbide tipped counter-bore with a 3/16" pilot running at around 300-350 RPM. It works OK, although it does leave a nasty burr right around the pivot hole. To avoid this, I am considering...

    Lock Rock

    So I made my 2nd and 3rd liner lock knives recently. Got pretty much everything done and fitted up. During the final fit and test, I noticed that both had some lock rock. Meaning I could move the blade slightly in the open/close direction. It isn't much, but enough to not let it be. These...
