I started a small group of knives yesterday, one being the KITH knife. All 3 were out of 1095 and all three appeared to quench fine in my typical water quench (yes i know they're risky). I heard no pinging and they passed an initial file test (I'll hardness test after the temper).Then I noticed noticed something that made me cringe, my KITH knife warped in the quench. Hopefully I can straighten it out in the second temper but if not I might start fresh. Either way, by the 4th of July, I should have one ready to go easily.
