Custom request for a design that doesn’t quite exist. But it was easily accommodated by modifying a K-Slick mini blank. Soon we can welcome this Fat Badger Scout.

Probably clueless question, but are you doing the file work after or before heat treat?

I was wondering the same thing initially. The file work was an afterthought on my behalf. I figured it unlikely to happen since the blade had been heat treated. But...clearly, I was pleasantly surprised!
I've never done file work, but if I were to...I'm pretty sure I'd prefer sumpthing soft and carbon...
