Gert Knife Enthusiast Registered: 12/19/13 Posts: 286 Loc: The Netherlands	All the parts for a Nr. 14 gathered together. A 7 1/2" ATS 34 blade with TIG welded stainless M6 thread, stainless guard and pommel, black linen Micarta handle material and aluminum and black fiber spacers. And a 3/8" brass rod to hard silver braze onto the pommel. As you can see, the blade radiuses into the tang. Important if you want to avoid stress risers during heat treat.
