Not bad for a beginner

Curious about the blade steel you use. Do you know what type of material the blades are made from? Any idea about the hardness you're getting with your heat-treat? Nice work & looks like a lot of fun.

The most recent was 1095 with the obvious Hamon Japanese heat treatment,I would bet it is in the high 50's and low 60's
