@EnderOctanus nickel plating maybe?
cool
I don't have the know-how or supplies to do much.
The metal is amazing though I wish I knew the manufacturer so I coild get the details on the steel they used. Flexible but so hard, never seen anything like it
lithium blade
pew pew
sound like something you make leaf springs out of
Hm
I mean I literally cannot get a drill through it to fasten the new handle
turtwife's grandpa has an armory of antique firearms
Used the hardest cobalt drill I could buy
cool
sounds like spring steel. flexible but hard as coffin nails
Yeah I have an old broken Belgian double barrel
Who knows where my family got it
But yeah that steel gives ,e so much grief.
diamond tip
Broke it
really?
Yeah even lubricated
try with your teeth
the ones in the back
Thing only drills wood and brick now lmao
some of the best spring steel is insane hard. it made to withstand the abuse of what ever you throw at it and just flex right back to it original shape
Yes that is this machete alright
I don't think it can break. But it sure can rust
I wanted tp use brass fasteners, but now it lookslike I have to usethe old rivet holes that vary in size. So I will jave to actually rivet the damn thing. I don't want to make rivets out of brass though for obvious reasons. I would be doing this by hand without an anvil.
Getting the old rivets out was hard, too, had to drill one out because it was practically attached to the blade. No welds though
Its just so hard, and takes so much time to make any progress that, by the time you manage to do anything, the damn thing has rusted again just by existing, despite numerous coatings of oil.
If I had an anvil things would be smoother.
I have to use bricks instead, which has obvious problems.
Maybe with this job, if I get it, I can buy a little block of railroad track as a DIY anvil.
Thanks Ender btw I'm probs going to Prison cus you talk alot about your knife.
Grandfather was a silversmith and a watchmaker before he became a useless alcoholic.
water jet cutter

Yeah uh
Try not living in a police state Broo
Also, I dunno if anyone is gonna let me borrow a water cutter Turt lmao
And I am reluctant to let somone else do my project you know?
