Hawkdancer:
Very nice looking grinds!  When you "salt test", you use rough going and drop some on the blade?  I'm not a smithy, by any means, so these are new skills.  Thanks,

When it looks hot I put some course salt on it and when it melts it is hot enough for file steel 1080-1094 is what a lot of them are

Tracker0721:
Good tip about the salt! Nice looking bevels too

Hawkdancer:
Bubbly,
When do you cut the haft in.  I assume you have a template for the pattern.  I have much to learn!
