Third knife completed. Still needs a bit of work but I wanted to share.

Hey all this is the third Knife I have completed using stock removal. is made of 5/32" 1084 from aldo. HT seems comparable to the esee pictured with it havnt done extensive testing yet just some wood cutting and paper slicing and mild batoning. Steel seems a bit hard, but does not chip, and my oven would only hold about 400-415 degrees F during the tempering process. two two hour cycles.

The small knife below this one in the last picture is also made by me but of 15n20. it cuts like a laser.
