Iceberg & RustFade
RustFade RustFade
I've been messing around with how rust builds up on metal in freezing temps, and I bet it does something odd to the edge of a blade.

Rust in cold can create a thin, uneven layer that shifts the edge geometry a little, making it feel sharper at first but also altering the blade’s balance. It’s worth testing a sample in a controlled setting before you trust it in a game.

Good point, but remember even a tiny tweak can turn a reliable edge into a hazard. Just test the edge under load, not just feel it. Keep the temp steady, otherwise the rust will act like a fickle partner.

Exactly, I’ll set up a load test and run a full‑speed drill to see how the edge behaves. If the cold shifts the grind, I’ll re‑sharpen. No loose blade is allowed in overtime.

Just remember to keep the drill at a consistent speed; a wobble could ruin the whole setup. And if the blade does go slick, a quick re‑grind will bring it back to its old stubborn self. Good luck.

Sounds solid—consistent speed and a quick re‑grind will keep that edge reliable. Thanks for the tip. Good luck on the ice.
