I like to try to make one small integral knife .I will use thick 52100 steel for one and thick 5160 for other one.I will not forge them , stock removal is much easier to do for me .
Question i have is this ..........Is it OK to make integral knife with forge welded parts for bolster and pommel ? I mean , say on 5mm thick flat steel i just forge weld thick bolsters from both side ,same from pommel if i decide to use it ? That way is far less work then forging it from thick piece of steel or stock removal from thick piece ?
What do you think ?
I have already cut one thick piece 52100 steel for first one.......I never cut till the end so i can break it and to see what i have inside that steel . SKF never disappointed me , never....
How can anyone don t like something like this
