Meisenmann Posted September 2, 2008 Share Posted September 2, 2008 Today I saw a small part of a file that I hot cutted off a week ago. I remembered some carving knives I saw yesterday, so I went to work with it. I used my little torch for it because the small thing did not justify heating my forge. I forged to shape, filed to end form and dulled the edge afterwards. Then I normalised three times. I applied a clayed back and hardened in oil, but I want to keep the look with the "black stuff" and wont etch it. It was tempered with the same torch after the whole process and is now quite sharp. I still have to make a grip for it, I am still thinking about what form of handle would fit for a carving knife. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
