Heat treated this one today. It checked 64 HRC after quench and on it's way to the tempering oven I dropped it. It hit the edge of my band saw and snapped like a piece of glass Time and money down the drain. Stuff happens but it sure raises the ole blood pressure when it does.

Dang it Mike, hang in there buddy. I dropped an old pair of binoculars I was looking thru the other day and cracked the left lens. I'm so glad they were mine and not someone else's. I think I invented a few new cuss words.

Oh no! Dang bro, I feel for you. I've done it but it wasn't a big piece of expensive of Damascus. I'm sorry bro. I'm about to work on some Damasteel this week, I can just imagine doing that to it. I may put some rubber mats from my kiln to my quench plates.
