Specification
Brand : USA Knifemaker Supply
BulletPoint1 : When you order 1 quantity, you receive a 12" piece
BulletPoint2 : This is basically ATS-34
BulletPoint3 : Note: 154CM bar stock normally comes with a very hard black exterior from the foundry. This bar stock has been sand blasted by Niagara to remove most of the hard "bark" but there will still be deep surface marks and surface inclusions to grind away. The bar stock comes oversize to take this into account. The following dimensions are typical.
BulletPoint4 : This steel is hot rolled and annealed, then surface ground. HR means hot rolled and this steel was rolled to thickness usually during the smelting process but maybe later. The steel generally will be half or nearly fully hard depending on the type. It may often have mill scale residue. This steel can be easily forged. It can also be ground via stock removal. Drilling a hole in the tang maybe hard to do with out a carbide bit. HRA is the same but the steel was later annealed to relieve stress and make it as soft as possible for easier machining.
BulletPoint5 : See product details for heat treat information

ProductDescription : Tip: My heat treat is basically this: Wrap in 2100F Temp stainless foil. I do not put any paper in the foil pouch. I want the pouch to suck up close around the blade. Putting paper in the pouch puff's it up. Fast ramp up 1450F, soak 10 minutes, continue fast ramp to 1850F, soak for 30 minutes. Remove and plate quench between two 1" thick plates of aluminum. I do not remove the blade from the pouch. While quenching, I shoot compressed air between the plates. This cools everything off a little quicker. The RC hardness I at this point averages around 61.5RC. I then put right into cryro (liquid nitrogen) for 8 hours. The hardness now averages 63RC. I then temper twice at 450F for 2 hours each. The hardness now is 59RC. Tip: If you are going to cryo treat your blade with Dry Ice use kerosene instead of Acetone for the bath. It is still flammable but not as explosive as Acetone is.
