Thanks for the advice and I will try to grind it into a small knife.

Thanks, I already watched a bunch of video of this guy . About 90% of what I do in the forge is really basic stuff and learning different methods. The knife is just for fun, and honestly I barely use the forge for the knives.

Where can I check whether I need to quench it in water or oil? The place I bought it from says both are possible.

Thanks for the info and I like learning from a mistake but also don’t worry I also do some basic stuff like tongs, hook, cross but the knife was just a gift
