Hey Everyone. This is a quick vid clip of my new blade I'm building. Not really a knife.. its a sword.

24" Blade. 33" OAL. 3/16" thickest point

D2 Tool Steel.

All parts removable for maintenance

Its not finished, or even heat treated yet. Getting done this coming week.

I send all my blades to a specialist heat treater in New Zealand who are the distributor and importer of Bohler Steel (which is what I use) They really do an outstanding heat treat.

This will be cryo'd to get the best out of the steel. I'm going to err on the side of caution and set the RC to 54.
