Chris, you can use a razor blank and quench it in said drink when you are in the forging or tempering.

Good point, Jimmy. Would I have to pick scale out of my teeth though?

sounds good, and since guys are now thinking of using it in their heat treat process....

I had a friend that was a gunsmith, we talked about the thinning of finishes for stocks, he said you could use mineral spirits, but he preferred to keep some good vodka around.

Of all the fascinating things in those books (and there are a great many--Stephenson is one hell of a researcher, in addition to being one hell of an author) that drink was....ummm...not on my list.

But kudos to you for trying it!

He is indeed! This series of books is one of the best I have started in a long time. I am amazed at the detail and totally captivated by the time period.

I recognize that drink is not for everyone.

I have always been attracted to the fringe of the c0cktail norms.
