Heat Treated and 1st 6hr Temper done. Going into Cryo tank and then another 2 tempers for 6hr each @1050F. My stainless foil always seems to fuse with the M4 blades. Probably because of the high austenizing temp. What a pain in the rear

 

[JGarrison Knives]

Wow, thats got to hit the electric bill hard.

 

[orchunter93]

They still look nice man! way too go!

 

[norcalblacktail]

Thats crazy how the foil fuses. Does it come off easy or do you grind it?

 

[Ban]

It doesn't pull off that's for sure. Have to grind it off

 

[MRpink]

that stainless foil is a pain... I sat there trying to scrape it off and said screw it, ended up grinding it off.

 

[Ban]

Yep, yours was only heated to 1800F. These M4 were heated to 2100F. They are still at rc65 after the first temper at 1000F. I am gonna have to bump up the next 2 tempers to bring them back down to rc61

Another Choil-less BT4 in A2. Will probably do another 1 or 2 before heat treating.
