Probably with a 5160 blade, and a peened tang in a solid cast bronze hilt, I really like the look of the incised lines on the blade and I'm trying to figure out if I want to try and etch those lines into the steel blade or if I should instead just do a fuller or a series of fullers or....

I dunno. Anyone have any thoughts?

You will hear thunder and remember me,
And think: she wanted storms. The rim
Of the sky will be the colour of hard crimson,
And your heart, as it was then, will be on fire.

I'd go with a small fuller. It'll be cool either way.

It is said that what is called the Spirit of an Age is something to which one cannot return. That this spirit gradually dissipates is due to the world's coming to an end. In the same way, a single year does not have just spring or summer. A single day, too, is the same. For this reason, although one would like to change today's world back to the spirit of one hundred years or more ago, it cannot be done. Thus it is important to make the best out of every generation.- hagakure

mrstabby: Been thinking the same - but the person that set up the page might not be there anymore and old code gets messy when not maintained. Might be a "repair subscriptions, destroy function X, repair X, destroy Y" situation by now - would mean a total overhaul. Nov 18, 2024 7:29:27 GMT
