metallurgy test...just for fun....
I?m trying to better learn this stuff so I made this ?test? up for fun. The answers will be posted in few message later in this thread.
1. Carbides precipitate during: A. the quench B. the cryo C. the Temper D. Just under Non-magnetic temp E. consumption of extra spicy taco?s on Taco Tuesday 2. Missing the TTT nose refers to: A. Avoiding pearlite transformation B. Avoiding Martensite transformation C. converting to Martensite D. Both A and C E. Both B and C F. None of the above 3. Bainite is A. Is between Pearlite and Austenite B. Is between Pearlite and Ferrite C. Is between Pearlite and Martinsite 4. Generally, to make steel good for a knife: A. You want to convert Austenite to Martensite B. You want to convert Martensite to Austenite C. You want to convert Trootsite to Bainite D. You want to convert Eutectoid to non-eutectoid E. Forge only at night, with chicken feet, facing north 5. Generally, steels that are _______ in carbon respond best to cryo A. higher B. lower C. devoid of D. Face centric 6. A Snap Temper is: A. A very short temper at approximately half of ?normal? temper temperature B. A very long temper to minimize shock before regular temper C. A low temperature, brief temper to stabilize material before cryo 7. Grain size, generally speaking, if: A. larger, makes the steel tougher B. smaller, makes the steel tougher C. uneven in size, but spread around consistently, makes steel tougher E. Makes a huge difference in the taste of single malt whiskey 8. Generally, in order to be effective, cryo treatment has to: A. be at least 0F B. be at least -90F C. be at least -300F D. be at least 32F 9. Austenite is: A. Cubic centeric B. Face polygonal centric C. Body tetragonal centric D. Lattice centric 10. Martensite is: A. Cubic centeric B. Face centric C. Body tetragonal centric D. Lattice centric 11. The threshold for hyper-eutectoid is: A. .60% B. .70% C. .80% D. .90% E. Two Barry Manilow songs in a row on the radio 12. Spheroidizing is: A. #### tough to remember what it is B. pooled carbides C. is largely bainite D. is largely cementite E. alloys forming round centric borders during temper 13. If you miss the TTT nose, you get: A. Troostite B. Cementite C. Austenite D. Martensite E. Pearlite 14. Generally, tempering range is: A. 350 to 850F B. 850 to 1300F C. 1400 to 1800F 15. Generally, stress relieving (annealing) range is: A. 350 to 850F B. 850 to 1300F C. 1400 to 1800F 16. To spheroid, you must be: A. Above critical B. Below critical C. Above and slow cool 17. When you spheroidize metal, it is: A. tougher B. more brittle C. harder to grind D. easier to grind E. make metal marbles 18. Metals have molecules: True or False. 19. Annealing is the same as Normalizing True or False 20. Edge packing a blade: A. Packs the atoms of the steel for better edge holding B. Refines the grain by increasing grain forming nuclei C. Raises the hardness of the blade D. any benefit is erased when the blade is brought to critical temp 21 Chicken feet used during forging: A. Increase the edge holding of a blade B. Allow you to face true North C. Are only allowed during a full moon D. Give Mark Williams something to snack on E. Refine the grain, increasing toughness 22. Cryo treatment will lower grain size True or False? No one would be happy unless there was a way to grade the score so I?ll make one up. # correct 20+ metallurgist 15+ heat treater 10+ student now for the answers... spoiler spacer.. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

The test
The answer to #21 is classified information and known only to graduate metallurgists. We could tell you but then we would have to deep fry you.
