Fantastic looking stag! but being a steel geek, your blade material choice has me tickled pink :) I haven't heard 440V used in a long while! Crucible calls it CPM-S60V now, and it's a fantastic steel!

More than likely it was around 20 min , 6 of them were on the bolsters alone ,they were made from solid 3;16 stainless steel , I try to build about 5 sheath knives an at least 3 folding knives rough out for heat treating at one time then start on them one at a time when i get thru with the heatreating t
