Two heading off to Heat-Treat

[Kalindras]

Just sending these off to HT...I'm making them as (hopefully) Yule gifts for a pair of brothers who are good friends and just happen to both be doctors.

I originally wanted to make them letter openers in the form of Civil-War era scalpels, but I couldn't find any good pics, so I instead went with this shape. Then, I got to thinking..."I'm gonna make letter openers outta ATS-34?? Oh, the H*LL I am..."

So, they're going to be sharp enough to open mail, sure. But they'll also open your finger, if you're not careful!!

Specs are: 9" Long, 1" Wide, ? weight. ATS-34.
