I shouldn't have to tell you that using a dagger to undo this little, fiddly screw's a bad idea.

I have been using files and grinders to make knives for about 3 years and i rock at sharpening. ( i have shaves with my knives before) I do have some ?’s for you; 1. When I am hammering the steel (i like to use a 5-20 lb. hammer) what is the best way to stretch a billet into a knife shape wile keeping a uniform thickness? 2. I have heard that using clay on the font edge of a sword/knife it a curve when you quench it. Is that true? That would be fun to try. 3. What is the best hammer to use for forging? 4. What is the best temp to quench steel so it becomes stronger? 5. When should you use flux? 6. How do you think I can convince my parents to let me get a forge? This is all I can think of for now but I will be back with more ?'s. Thank you.

You asked about putting clay on a sword to give it curve. This actually is somewhat true. If you allow the leading edge to cool faster than the opposite side, it'll curve a bit away from that edge. This is part of the reason why a Japanese katana is curved (although they are made that way by design prior to quenching)

yup. i have been forgeing them lately (well trying to get better at it)

I just remembered about this. This it the knife I was talking about in the PM.

That's really cool. You should make it into a folding pocketknife.
Dec 3, 2007. 5:40 PMPat Sowers says:
I had put on in a clicky eraser so it would be concealed. I could make it go up and down it was cool.
