Made from aldo's 1084 and 15n20. The steel is normalized by forcing recrystallization via heavy forging as the temperature drops, I still suggest a triple normalization before heat treatment. The bars are curved because of gravity while forging, nothing major but will need to be straighted before it is ground into a knife. One side is ground on a 36 grit belt and the other is ground on a flap disk. A few spots have forging pits that I forgot to grind out before etching, nothing major maybe 1/64" deep.
225 layer slow twist pattern.
1-4 from top to bottom.
1) 7/8"x11.5"x.16" +/- .02 Its slightly rusted because I couldn't fit all of it into my etching tank, sorry.
$65
2) 13/16"x11-7/8x".15" +/- .02 The last 6 inches taper out to .218", basically its extra steel for free.
$58
3) 7/8"x6-1/8"x .16" +/- .02
$35
4) 7/8"x4-1/2"x.16" +/- .015
SOLD
Or all of it for $150, thats $33 off!
A few pictures to help show the pattern, but the pattern is so fine its hard to see at 36 grit.
My return policy is pretty simple, if you find a welding flaw I will replace the bar with an equal value bar.
Thanks for looking!
