Default Just Finished my 51200 Ball Bearing Steel
I love 52100; takes six days to heat treat and temper. I made the sheath, the Micarta for the handle, even the Mosica pins.
The knife is 8 inches long and 5/32 thick.
I've use the Ed. Fowler heat treating method. It's amazing steel. I had a request for some 52100 steel from someone in Canada; but I was in Georgia, if you're on here, I hope your knife went smooth.
