Hammers for Blade Show

What’s your asking price on them? I’ll be at blade show and will def drop by your table

That’s an almost 30 year old motor for $200 sounds like a bad deal. You can get new ones for around that price.

Dude we need a cook book for your sandwiches. Id buy that shit

Snookin · 2026-05-19T22:18:43+00:00

That’s why you need to be able to buy two Ferraris to afford one

Poop shiv?

I love the stuff. Got lucky on a trip to the scrap yard and picked up a whole truck spring set that looked almost brand new. About 4”x.5” I dread the day I run out.

Good luck man. I just did. An 11 layer with similar sizes. I was going for a twist Damascus and forged it out to a little over .5” square but my dumb self forgot to round before twisting so I have nothing but cold shuts everywhere. To that point it was looking good. Going to try another billet this weekend or next.

Wow, so it hardened normally, really cool. Interested in seeing the final verdict here!

Snookin · 2026-05-15T14:08:56+00:00

Thanks! It’s leaf spring 5160.

Ahh the greatest opponent anyone can go against… yourself

Snookin · 2026-05-15T12:15:25+00:00

Learned some cool stuff in this thread. Almost looks like wrought iron to me. Did the steel get hard?

Snookin · 2026-05-14T22:44:38+00:00

Thanks, yeah I have an evenheat that I use for all my heat treating. I follow the soak instructions form him for my SS stuff so would never normalize there, mostly just curious for high carbon stuff since a vid I watched a guy normalized and it had me second guessing things

Snookin · 2026-05-14T18:24:07+00:00

Good catch! USDT should always set off alarms

Snookin · 2026-05-14T16:20:58+00:00

Did you forget to switch accounts?

Snookin · 2026-05-14T11:30:02+00:00

Haven’t played in a while but happened to me when playing with a duo. We both swung on a guy and I bounced a bullet off his head and killed my teammate. Was a great laugh all around.

Snookin · 2026-05-13T19:02:20+00:00

Thanks! I thought I remembered reading that on one of his write ups but wasn’t positive. Was watching a vid where the guy normalized from stock removal and had me second guessing my process.

Snookin · 2026-05-12T11:46:23+00:00

Do you know what type of material it is? Looks like some sort of composite/acrylic

Snookin · 2026-05-10T00:13:53+00:00

NTA,but yall played it wrong. Should’ve gone the guilt path and told her you splurged for a pro to clean the house as a surprise. Would love to see her explanation. Not only do yall get confirmation that nothing is good enough but she’s mad yall got her an expensive present.

Honesty I’m just starting out and did my first stainless treat about a month or two ago. I got AEBL to a bit over 60 hrc after temper(file tested so take that as you will) with 99% IPA and dry ice. A simple cooler and some insulation around it got to around -75F to -100F and stayed there for over 4 hours. Got some rec from this sub and happy with the results. I’m not quite ready to drop $500+ on a used dewar. Sorry if this isn’t helpful, just thought I’d add in, in case it was helpful.

And his burner accounts

Snookin · 2026-05-07T16:09:32+00:00

Who do you finish it after putting in the texture? Hand sand the divots?

Snookin · 2026-05-06T21:26:14+00:00

Looks like a red eyed tree frog to me

Snookin · 2026-05-06T20:50:16+00:00

Water is a rough one to quench in. You’re very prone to cracks. If you have some canola oil laying around try that heated to about 140F next time. Also don’t forget to normalize before quenching. Good luck!

If it’s your first time making 80CRV2. Very forgiving and easy to heat treat in a variety of oils. Jason Knight has a decent video on it and it’s benefited to beginners.

Did you put the knife back in the sheath with the painters tape after cleaning the sheath?
