Austrian Bad Ass Division presents:

little oily and not sharpened yet but almost done... the beginning of the...  Austrian Bad Ass Devision

rubber

tested shoe rubber  as scale material...kind of works:

pain to work with but feels really good and warm in hand

Holy crap

Finally I found a way to enter the blog again...

No idea what went wrong... maybe i was hacked *ha*

anyways a few more blades

I still use O1 and other carbon steels... but Bohler N690 will be next

a little stainless won´t hurt I guess

why are the blades mostly gray..well I do etch them ... gives them better rust and stain "resistance"... but O1 and other carbon steels like it will stain and rust if you don´t take care of them

at least that´s what I have experienced.

etching is not like a coating but better then leaving them all shiney
