Well, my first batch of knives is ready for heat treatment. This is my first batch since the construction of the new shop (granted there's more to do with the shop) and I will be sending them out to Peter's. I have 3 pairing/petty knifes, 2 hunters and a camp knife. All blades were done in O1 tool steel with the 2 hunters and camp knife being 1/8" stock and the petty's being 1/16th stock.

I want a new shop. Or an old shop for that matter.
So I can do cool things like this in it!

LOL, I think I know what you mean already. I've work hardened a few pieces already from the grinder, which prevented me from using a file to clean up some areas. I guess that's a caveat of using O1, at least from what I hear. I just ordered a sheet of 52100, so we'll see how that fairs versus the O1.
 
Fresh from Peter's Heat Treat hardened to 59-60Rc… Time to turn the "knife shaped objects" into knives!

Are those blades mono steel O1? They look very nice...
