Redneck carp's-tongue Posted June 4, 2017 Share Posted June 4, 2017 During the long sabbatical I've had from this site, I've managed to quench and scale my knife. It's horribly simplistic, with basically square blocks that have been notched to give a grip and have had finger grooves carved into them. The heat treat was also post-apocalyptic; It was quenched in a can of oil and tempered in my oven. If you can see the images (I'm not exactly sure because they're not inserted), could you tell me what you think? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Redneck carp's-tongue Posted June 5, 2017 Author Share Posted June 5, 2017 It would probably have been better to say makeshift, rather than post-apocalyptic. An oven isn't a hard thing to build anyways, but that's beyond the point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThomasPowers Posted June 5, 2017 Share Posted June 5, 2017 You've never built an adobe horno (beehive oven)? There are fairly common pre apocalypse out here... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
