About Simple Little Life:
This channel has sort of turned (inadvertently) into a knife making channel. But the original idea behind what we wanted it to be is this description below:
Videos on our journey to homesteading. With a recent purchase of a little piece of the Alberta prairie, we're looking to sell our nice suburban home in search of a more meaningful life beyond chasing the "American dream" working for some big company and making someone else rich. It's not about the money, it's about getting the most value from the work I do to improving the life of my family.
Some preparedness, DIY, building quality things with your hands, guns, gear, and outdoor exploration.

    You used 3/16" 01 for this piece. Are you finding that 3/16" 01 stock needs a soak time in HT? I am getting ready to do a run of kiridashis in 01 and only have a propane forge for HT. The over all dimensions I will be working with are 6"×1"×3/16". I figured I would bring it up to critical/nonmagnetic, soak for a minute then quench at 150 degrees oil temp. Then two rounds of tempering at 400 for 1 hour each.

    When you are sanding, I see you using the Windex bottle to wet the metal. Is it just water, or do you add something to the water? It seems to foam a little. Are you actually using Windex? Just wondering, because your finish is beautiful.
