    I recommend knifesmithing, it's very therapeutic!
    Hey, thanks for the thumbs up.
    I bandsaw 3/8" 5160, then hammer forge (coke or electric) to contour and blade angles,
    then grind, heat treat to the max 5160 can stand without becoming unstable, then grind
    and polish. They finish out at .357", my favorite caliber.
    I started selling to friends who were deploying a while back.
    I think i'll trying to sell a few but i can only make one every two
    weeks as i have a day job.

    To fight and conquer in one hundred battles is not the highest skill.
    To subdue the enemy with no fight at all,
    "That," is the highest skill.
