Thank you Cajun, I used SaveEdge wide rasps for the big ones and an old Bellota that I got from T for the smaller one. I use Houghton quench oil and I believe it is the rapid quench stuff. I temper in the wife's oven with a roaster pan of sand I heat to 400 degrees and bury the blades in for 2 one hour soaks. I use a differential temper on the smaller blade since I won't be chopping with it. Austesus I believe I have seen your buddies work in the Bladesmithing for Beginners page. I recall that knucklbone handle.
