Also, for knife makers, even heat (no hot spots) is important. The design
Roy writes of

As far as keeping the kaowool, etc. in place, many who use the cylindrical
design also advocate castable refractory, especially when working with
pattern welded steel or other forge welding that requires a lot of flux.
