jmccustomknives Posted May 20, 2012 Share Posted May 20, 2012 This little test knife was forged from a NTN ball bearing. I believe it is close to 52100. I should really get a power hammer if I am going to keep doing these. :angry: All in all, as a test knife it turned out pretty well. Gets razor sharp and stays that way. If anyone knows what the metalugy of that steel is, share please. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
