Hey all, I just got a new HT oven, and this is the first test blade out of the new kiln.

, Im really liking the thing.....and im sure Ill like it even more once i figure out what all the buttons and settings do:confused:.

Anyway, I had a customer that wanted a knife, built but was concerened:eek: about battoning with a knife because of the deep finger choil I use alot of times.

So to eliminate any worries, and to ease my own curiousity I tested a piece of 1/8'' 1080. The knife was stock removal made, flat ground with a convex edge.

I tried to put as much stress as possible on the tip, and choil area by directing majority of the blows with the rawhide mallet on those areas.

I was pretty satisfyed with the results:rolleyes:, I mean nothing to write home about, but not to shabby for a first attempt:D.

Thanks for looking.

and sorry for the :barf:leg shot:barf:, but i dont wear shorts much.
 
thanks all,

funny those were the customers exact words!!!

mr. long,

I actually made the video for the customer, but since i had started a thread showing off the new kiln, i figured i'd show the first thing to come out of it. It's actuall just a small drop point for a wilderness & suv. fella, but it sure does take a beat'en.
