Let’s be honest, our first thought was that there is no way this blue steel bar is going to become a trio of knives. We’d, of course, be wrong. What we are looking at is a 1084 steel bar that is 1/8″ thick by 1-1/2″ wide. The reason that the steel is purple-ish blue is because it has been coated with a layer of layout fluid. Here we see that our survivalist has outlined his future knives.
