Thought i would like to make a couple of knives from scratch so just to be a little different i wanted a bush crafty blade with a stick tang to make it lighter . I also wanted a taper on the blade so its thinner at the point i have now got the shape and thickness i want and will grind the edge on it (Nothing fancy just a flat grind) .
Now of course i have a blade with various thicknesses on it will this be a problem when i try and harden/ temper it ? presuumably the tang is left soft or do i treat the whole knife . ilan
