It was fun seeing that sand "boil" when you put the hot blade in it, but what was even more interesting was how much more even the heating of the blade appeared just by eyeball test when you used the high temp sand pot compared to the forge. You looked a tad overheated at the tip coming out of the forge, but not so with the sand pot.
