March 26, 20197 yr Didnt intend for this to be a folder, but I dorked up my billet somewhere along the line & I don't much like wasting metal. So its off in this direction instead. This started out as 1084 powder & 15n20 in a 50mm x 50mm x 75-80mm can. Welded, drawn out, & twisted (where I think I dorked up) by hand. Ground to a quick dirty 240 grit, followed by a 10 minute ish dip. I'm hoping to get about a 25mm wide strip from the middle of my little billet. That should get me past my problem areas. None run very deep. In full disclosure, I've never done a folder before. So I'm sure I'll muddle this up a fair bit. Any and all advice & pointers is greatly appreciated. Should be a fun learning experience regardless.
