View attachment 2210550Because I have never used this steel I did some destructive testing. It broke in the vise at almost 90 degrees, had a powder like grain structure and after cutting half way through a 20 penny nail there was no damage to the edge.

Mr. Drew, you just beat the brakes off this one. So much to see and consider. Intricate and lovely. Also, I am really pleased to hear my favorite steel passed your testing with flying colors. So cool to see you flex a bit with this superlative ornate work. You rocked it.

Holy cow Gerry! I don't know where to start, that's just a great knife - beautiful and practical too.
