Robby Duke Posted November 17, 2016 Share Posted November 17, 2016 Simple 1095 kitchen knife, I haven't really polished the blade up too nicely. I got in a rush and wanted to put the handle on lol. All in all it didn't come out too horrible? I think it was a respectable first blade. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheoRockNazz Posted November 17, 2016 Share Posted November 17, 2016 Looks great! Much nicer than my first. How'd you heat treat? 1 TheoRockNazz.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robby Duke Posted November 17, 2016 Author Share Posted November 17, 2016 Looks great! Much nicer than my first. How'd you heat treat? Using the wood charcoal pieces I started a fire and used a hair dryer to get it up to temperature. Once the steel became non-magnetic I quenched it in hydraulic oil from our tractors.

Robby Duke Posted November 18, 2016 Author Share Posted November 18, 2016 Thank you everyone! I took most of my time primarily thinking it through and watching people make knifes in videos online and then planning how I want mine to turn out. I must say it did come out closely to how I imagined it. I appreciate the warm welcome from the community Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
