  1. Great video! I am actually positively surprised by the knowledge of those knifemakers, even though none of them is on your expert level of course 😀

  2. I have a question about how much cerakoted effects the heat treat. I would like to get a knife cerakoted with elite series cerakote . This is oven cured at 300 degrees for 1 hour. The knife steel is REX76 .Will this hurt the heat treat? Will it change anything ? Mess with the temper?
