Hello:
I'm a new member here and I've allready started on my first knife. Sorry for posting a thread on this topic, but I can't search, being a non-paying member. If there is a sticky, I'd love a link to it. In browsing the net, I noticed that many knifemakers are very particullar about their charcoal. Is there any problem with just using briquetes? I tested some scrap with regular briquetes in my BBQ, and with only a hair dryer, I got O-1 steel to non-magnetic in about 5 minutes!!!
Thanks for any info guys,
Eric
