Greetings Earthlings!
Here I will display my work. The name Ultiblade is not just a name. It represents 2 years of investigation and setting up heat treatment to achieve better results. I use CHT (Cyclic Heat Treatment) or Multiquench method. As it achieves minimum of double the toughness I have decided to go hard. Minimum is 60HRC. Big choppers are 61HRC also. For now my blades are from O2 tool steel. I have tested 10xxx series and they do not react much to CHT, and have been discarded. In the near future D3 will be introduced as I have very good results with it, for now. So good it has proven tougher than O2. Short video on a destructive test soon.
That's it for now. N'joy the pics. More info in this thread in time.
Kind regards and keep rock'n
Model in the pictures is Bush Ulite, ultralite series
