SLAiN Posted November 20, 2009 Share Posted November 20, 2009 Hi all.... My name is Matt, i,m from Brisbane Australia.... i,v been forging knives for about 12 months so far... i,v made a couple of beauties, but i still have a bit to learn, as far as treating different types of steel go,s.... so far i,v only used 5160 for my knives.... soon i will be doing a blade made from D2... i,m studied up on how to heat treat it, so all i have to do is make the blade and then put the theory to practice... I,ll try and get some photo,s of my knives up when i get a chance... Matt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Poor Old Al. Posted November 20, 2009 Share Posted November 20, 2009 Go the mighty Maroons, new here myself. Melbourne is delightful this time of the year, the weather is as reliable as a politician's promises. Many years ago, in England, our metalwork class had a forge and I was quite good (as opposed to most other subjects). Now getting close to retirement, Ive decided to revisit my youth and have another go. I beg your forbearance, because I'm going to be asking many more questions than I'll be giving answers. Anyway, All the best, Alan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
