@ArtistBlade1972 cool, yes sir, i just finished making (well kind of) my first ever knife. and i've been studying sugarcreekforge's channel, as well as gavkoo and several other guys who are doing blacksmithing and knife making. picking up pieces here and there. i gathered some stuff from my junk pile today to start assembling my first charcoal forge, gas is planned down the road. anyway, i am going through and watching all of your vids.

how long are you waiting before you temper ?
-
quench more than once . what oil are you using?
-
too small of pan to quench.
-
should have preheated the steel first before sticking straight in.

at the end of this video you talk about doing something to the spine of the blade, have you done a video or explained this process somewhere else? i am very new to knife work and i want to learn the correct way of doing things.
thank you very much for taking the time to post this series, it has been a huge help

@evcrawfish Watch my video of heat treating the Khopesh sword, that should make things clear. :) You're very welcome for the videos, glad you're getting something out of em. Thanks for watching.

should have been testing with magnet , instead of just judging colors

@rcmoot A magnet isn't nearly as accurate as looking for the point of decalescence/recalescence. The curie point marks the lower transformation temp. This is only the correct quench temp for 1084, which this is not. I never multiple quench simple steels, only low and medium chromium alloys. Thanks for watching...

@m579064 You won't see the pattern until after the blade is etched...
