Add surfur powder to threading fluid and it will cut it

That's a good tip. I'll remember it. Those two were the scrap knives I hammered from cut off steel. Not super worried about them. Might do a hidden tang handle with no pins. Not sure.

I can't believe the handles hardened so much even though they never came close to the oil. Live and learn.

Tomorrow I'm going to try to harden and temper the full sized 80CRV2 knives I've got ground. Then handles. Then testing.

Prob need a slower RPM as well
Surfer definitely helps

Use to use it drilling through welds on junk at a fab shop

Well here you go.

It’s ducking miserable.
Try loading bags in an airplane on a slick ramp. Taking off on a runway with no center line. Fuck snow. Ir has no redeeming qualities but misery.

PayPal users: someone purchased a rather expensive item from me. I told them I’m in vacation and can’t ship till I’m back on the 6th, but went ahead and paid anyways. I think they paid for the fees and stuff cause it’s about $30 less than my price.

money on my account when I pull it it up is “on hold” so I’m guessing I’ll get the money when I ship? Never seen this. Don’t wanna send it and he somehow refund it and I’m screwed on money and said item

Don’t use PayPal.

I don't miss it. Snow is a pain in the ass. I hate scraping ice off my windows, and sitting in my car waiting for it to warm up.

Good news, the knives are hard. Bad news is a brand new cobalt bit won't drill them.

Product performance testing is my primary function at the company I work for now. We tested twist drill bits earlier this year. Try the Milwaukee red helix shockwave ones. They did well against 4140HT and SS304. If you do, let me know how they work for ya.
