| After
all the exercises with Chinese material I decided to find some more serious steel.
4x13 rust-free seem to be the best. So I bought a lot of it. But this steel has
a little problem. The temperature of hardening is over 1050 degree C. This led
me to a furnace. The first knife 4x13 is with half
polished, half chemically matted blade. The handle is bone, horn, wood combination
with melhior inlay and white polymer. The scabbard is from
walnut tree. |
