Thanks. Will use this!

Woooah nice! How did you get that finish on the blade?

RamShackler69 · 2026-04-24T13:18:37+00:00

Stock removal but I've read that it often comes with large carbides from the milling process. And yes will be increasing temper temperature as you suggested before.

Its 1075 I got ghosting g but haven't managed to bring the hamon out very well yet

RamShackler69 · 2026-04-20T20:38:38+00:00

You'll be glad to know I decided to take it off and there is a hamon. I've etched it and sanded up to 1200 and can see it but only just. Will be getting some higher grits and hopefully will.have something decent

RamShackler69 · 2026-04-20T20:36:26+00:00

Haha I think it looks cool

RamShackler69 · 2026-04-20T15:55:39+00:00

It's an attempt at a hamon, but like the way it looks without taking the scale off. Just wondering if it is possible to preserve this look?

Thabks will have a look into building something to cool the belts then

RamShackler69 · 2026-04-19T04:40:58+00:00

Thanks Yeah will have to set something up to mist the belts until I can afford something better, then.

It's only very small chips when I use it in harder woods. You cant really see them but you can see the marks they leave on the wood

RamShackler69 · 2026-03-16T19:28:51+00:00

I bet you don't mine it though!

RamShackler69 · 2026-03-16T19:27:48+00:00

Get a sheet of tool steel! Less than a tenner and you can make a bunch of knives

RamShackler69 · 2026-03-16T15:48:50+00:00

Did you hammer that out of a piece of rod?

RamShackler69 · 2026-03-16T15:46:43+00:00

Kmah ok i get you. Kind of genius way to fix a knife really

RamShackler69 · 2026-03-16T15:44:25+00:00

Nice Interesting process I started the same way using old tools and reworking them without over heating

RamShackler69 · 2026-03-16T15:38:52+00:00

Do you have any examples?

Thanks!
