curvey blade
« on: July 17, 2010, 11:36:00 PM »
THIS ONE MADE ME ALMOST CRY   :(  . GOT IS OUT OF HEAT TREAT AND IT HAD A VERY SLIGHT CURVE TO IT. SO I REHEATED IT AND MADE IT RIGHT. BUT IT CURVED ON ME AGAIN   :knothead:  . SO I JUST LEFT IT FOR ME. SHARP BUGGER AND I USED SOME REALLY COOL SNAKE WOOD FOR THE SCALES. BLADE IS 4" OAL IS 8' FILE WORK AND THE BLADE IS GERMAN SAWMILL STEEL..<><

 Hey Frank I made one of Karl's 3 dowell blade straightner's where Ya use the dowells in a vise to push the apex of the bend a little past strait and just using Your tempering heat. Works like a charm Bro!
