bubby:
A friend of mine is a millwright at a mill locally. When I had my last replacement surgery he cut a bunch of blanks out with the plasma cutter and brought them to my in-laws. I think they were from trimsaw blades , all I know is they get real hard.anyway I cleaned one up and ground the bevels in , then got it heat treated. It's in the toaster oven now

FilipT:
Are you going for a "small bowie" look here?

Hawkdancer:
Good looking start.  Looks like your "forge" can double for grilling steaks at a somewhat cooler temperature! (=) (f) (f)! Lol!

bubby:
Hawk man I have used that for a forge before , just not for this

bubby:
Well I cleaned up the blade , then drilled the pin hole and did the ferric etchant dip. I anneled the tangto drill it and still couldn't get a hole in it so I used a carbide ball Burr to do it
