Not sure exactly when it will happen, but I decided it was time to get on the path to MS.
Here is the billet for my Master Smith Performance Test knives.
Wish me luck.

From experience, I know how much fluid I lose when forging a billet on a hot day, so I weighed myself before I started - 174.6.
When I finished - 172.4
I lost an entire kilo!
