Thanks Crex. I'm already doing a new blade :-)
I ahve made some really good HT in the same forge on previous test blanks. THose i did by colour and nonmagnetic.
This time i wanted to try the Tempilsticks to hit the temperature even better, but that didn't go as planned..
I think what annoys me is, that the temperature for the steel I bought should be between 1545 and 1615 F. I didin't hit 1615 based on the Tempilsticks but it still overheated, thats what i don't understand..
