Rockwell Hardness Testing

Old member here but could not find my password so I started over with a new member ID and password.

I was searching Hardness Testing and found this old thread:

http://www.knifenetwork.com/forum/sh...ardness+tester

Anyway I recently obtained a Wilson Rockwell Hardness Tester and thought I would post a few photos. I am setting it up now and have ordered some new diamond penetrators so it will be a few days before I begin testing blades.

200 pounds of good old American Iron!

Photos distorted a bit due to the wide angle lens.



A 12 inch scale leaning against the tester:



It is an oldie, in great condition, dates to World War II by the War Department Tag.



Came with plenty of tooling



Even a can of the very rare Eel Skid!
