I'm betting your steel was work hardening as you drilled it. I'm not sure if 1080 will do that or not but that's what it sounds like. Try using cutting oil or something to keep it cool next time. I've had the same thing happen. I just heated the areas around the holes to red hot again, let it cool, and then finished drilling.

I have been working slowly for several years learning the art of making custom fishing rods, one thing I have learned from other artist be it one who paints, does pottery, leather craft etc, we are our worst critics.
I ould buy one of your knives, even this one here. I love the shape, the handle great work.
