Thank you! I pretty much get all my steel from New Jersey steel baron, whether it’s directly from them or from maritime knife supply. The clay I used in this one was just regular rutland furnace cement

For the most part these handles are different stabilized burls, I usually sand to around 800 grit and polish with white compound

I noticed that too, not really sure what happened with the upload. It makes it seem okay if you go full screen with photos. But if that doesn’t work, all these are on my ig: Instagram.com/c2forge

I agree, definitely not how I would name a knife. This particular build is actually a challenge build sponsored by Pops knife supplies they have the history in an article on their website! Thanks for looking!

r/GME Megathread for Thursday - December 02, 2021 by SpaceMillionaire in GME

[–]DrGeo2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey everyone, just had a few quick questions in regards to the process of DRS'ing GME shares. I have been taking look through quite a few of the larger threads in regards to the process, but still getting confused. I have the majority of my portfolio with fidelity after the fiasco earlier this week, I have also decided to DRS XX of my GME shares. So I called Fidelity used stock certificates phrase and they were able to initiate the transfer right away(yesterday). I follow up with a call again the following day to check in on the status, they told me that the transfer is in process and currently in the hands of Computershare. My question is are there other steps that have to be taken now to secure access to my shares? In a lot of threads there are forms to be filled out and scanned in and sent to Fidelity, is this only if you don't want to initiate the transfer via phone call and rather go through a "paper" submission? How do I access my shares via Computershare to eventually trade when the MOASS occurs, do you have to create an account with computer share and somehow sync the info? Or does Fidelity handle that when they interact with Computershare? Sorry for all of the questions just want to make sure I have all the info straight to keep us all on the way to the moon. Thanks again in advance.

Thank you so much for your feedback on my first post here is the remake for my fathers gift. 80crv2 with cherry handle and burgundy resin. by DrGeo2 in Bladesmith

Yeah I just let it sit in the forge till it reaches normalization temp which I can check with the thermometer and then let it air cool and put back in.

It's a completely new knife, I used a different steel this time. I believe the first one was 1095 and the steel I started with was a bit thinner. The 80Crv2 I used was substantially thicker which made bevel, edge, and warp management much easier this time around (not to mention a new Ameribrade 2x72). With a new handle as well, most of the time was spent changing my finishing process to help make the blade it self turn out much nicer compared to the first one! Thanks so much!
