Hello Every one,
I'm in need of advice on the topic of hand filling serrations. the blade i'm putting these on is a 5in fixed blade.the serrations are to be on the bottom section of the blade with an est length of 1 1/4 long.iv been pondering how to go about laying them out, so far what iv come up with is to start by measuring my small files, marking the start and end of each file I plan to use then make a smaller mark in the center of each dedicated section. for the next step file each section down to my center mark. ( sorry one morething to add i'm doing this before I heat treat on the assumption that once i'm to the point of putting the final edge on, I just sand it on and it puts the final edge on the serrations as well)
Sorry if im confusing, i'm not one with words.hopefully every one understands what i'm saying.
I guess I should ask the main question is this an effective way to go about putting serrations on a blade?
Thank you for your time.
