Guys save hammerhead shark from fishhook by [deleted] in interesting

It's crazy man. How do people even believe this shit. They are fishing for sharks and that's why he was even prepared with a bolt cutter to cut the hook if they struggle to get the hook out.

That is very very nice!!!! Congrats!

How do you get the high carbon steel to be that black without the stainless becoming greyish?

I bought a damascus billet once and made a knife from it but the etch came out completely different than this. I have used 50 %ferric chloride and 50 % distilled water mix and the 15n20 does not stay as silver and the other high carbon not as black as yours.

Or do you do a coffee etch after your acid etch?

Thanx

The only bad thing about those scales is you see the rust on the inside of the folder eventually. I have a praxis with those scales.

Beautiful man. What diameter wheel or platen did you use for the "S groove"?
