New Blade Coating ?

I'm not sure about that one, but I do know what happens when beer and boiled eggs are vaporized under pressure.:eek:
 
Even if it is not so usable for knife making (maybe it is ?) it is a good advertising way : "Tequila coated tactical knives".. Wow it will sell like crazy :D
 
WOW, Thats interestin as HECK ! Thanks fer posting it..

>>>Someone must have a bottle of TEQUILA to try it out <<

GO TO WORK AN POST UR RESULTS !
 
that's realy cool

however forgive me if I'm wrong as I'm a newbie but, it says he had to heat the tequila to 800C to produce the crystals wouldnt that kind of heat ruin the HT on your knife? or would you coat the blade b4 HT and if so would the crystals survive the temps of HT? :confused:
 
Carbon Vapor deposit has been around for a while. I had a teacher at school that had his dvd's for class coated with diamond so they wouldn't scratch. The downside is that this coating can chip off pretty easily from what I remember.

Thats intresting as heck! So spraying a mist of tequila into the forge on final heat for hardening and voila' diamond coating?
 
Interestingly all the info on this report is from the same news article. It seems that it would be in a scientific report somewhere. There seems to be a little missing in the process.N-diamonds are easily made, but at a temperature that would destroy the HT of any blade. As stated in the article, 800C - that is a little high for most temper cycles.
