RE: Moray, you're the man!

Well since I spent 14 years as a Custom Knifemaker using exotic steels that have to be sub zero quenched to harden properly some of what has been said about treatment in liquid Nitrogen has struck me as very odd. If I wanted to take this experiment to the next level -110 can be easily done with dry Ice and Methanol in a cooler. Or since my best buddy is the manager of a large welding supply store Liquid Nitrogen and a dewier to store it in would be easy to come by.

DO I think there would be any reason to take this next step, save to say I tried it. NO I don't. I did this because in the original thread the home freezer method was being touted as having a marked improvement in the treaded CD's. I idsagreed witht he whole idea and was told I should try it or be quiet in a manner of speaking.

What I found in my personal experiment was not only no noticeable improvement but no difference between the two samples what so ever.

So as they say on TV for me "this myth is busted"

And with all things based on faith not fact your mileage might vary.

(I say faith because so far I haven't read anyone explaining why or how any of this freezing stuff might work)
