Hello All,

I was testing out some new drawing dies and decided to put together this little one. It's low carbon clad Wolfram Special with lots going on between the carbon migration and the cladding itself. It has a fairly curvy profile up until the last 45mm or so by the heel and atypically for my work, was water quenched.

Oh, I feel that I should note that while the cladding does touch the edge in a couple of places it at no point crosses into it. Proper asymmetric sharpening will keep the apex entirely in the core steel.
