What would be the effect of varying temper/hardness along the length? One area would flex more or less for example. Change your bevel angle for that section maybe.
For now I have put that one aside and I have a new favorite blade [probably favorite hone job would be a better description!].
I think I will start another thread about about my technique or lack of it. I noticed on the next blade that the bevel got narrower in the same general area about an inch back from the tip. And on one side not the other. It seems like a pattern is emerging.
Thanks
Tim
