It really bugs me that the "edit post" function doesn't work for me to correct my spelling errors. It just spins a circle and never allows me to edit, add, or change a post.

Blade profiled, bevels ground in, and finished to 400 grit in preparation for HT.

I had cut a coupon off the tang to check for carbide formations. This got bevels grond in, hardened, tempered, and polished to 800 grit, Then a couple of short etch cycles to expose the structure.
