Thanks for the replys guys. It is a gift and he said it did not matter to him what it looked like just that it would not break and was heavy.

What would be the best steel to make a diving knife from. One that will be used in the ocean a lot. My nephews son is a diver and works in the salt water every day. Can someone with a little knowledge on this help me out.

I watched the Forged in Fire show again the other night and really it is just a T V show but I kindly liked it. Shows a little about forging ( I know very little) but it gives people a little insight about the workings of making a knife. I don't rally like the weapons terminology to it all but...

There is no doubt that this show was not the best it could have been to promote making a knife. One thing is for sure the guy who won is happy to get the ten grand to do with as he pleases. It brings a little light on the craft, even if it is a very dim light. People will watch and they will...

You must be on a first name basis with and EMS or someone in the emergency room to be a full time knifemaker

What more needs to be said than beautiful

Bruce for sure the colors come together as good as any knife I have seen. that is absolutely superb looking and craftsmanship. Thanks for showing this fine piece of art for me to see I love it.

I will normally sand it to 800 + then use ren wax on it. I put a couple of lite layers on but after each one I buff it real hard with a soft cotton rag. Don't use a buffer, it will give your arm a work out but it makes it look soooo gooood. I am allergic to it and some other woods and will...

my son has a customer that wants a few knives made from farrier files. He annealed them but we can't seem to get them hard enough for a good usable knife. Around 54 is the hardest we can get. Can anyone give me info on heat treatment with a furnace temps and all to get this done. You guys have...

My buffer took a fillet knife from me and stuck it in my leg, this was back in 1992. I have a healthy respect form it now. It is amazing what a flying piece of sharp steel can do to you or the wall.

You know that is exactly why I like to look on this site. People can help you out and it is awesome that knife makers from all around will answer question. A friend had gotten some 1080 and I had not used it and he ask me and I did not know the question but told him that someone on knife dogs...

Will 1080 make a good using knife. And what Rockwell can you get from it.

It is amazing to me that people say the policy is ok when actually it is not. If you are selling legal merchandise then the credit company should not be able to stop that transaction because they don't like your product. When you say it is not a business transaction to save the paypal % then...

We stabilize a lot of wood in our shop. mostly for us but my son sells some. I bought the glass vases from Hobby Lobby and they work fine you can get most any size you want. I also bought some laboratory glass tubes that work fine but they got broke when moving. The ones from Hobby Lobby we...

If you wan to try something that is as close to hot blue as you can get. Go Brownell's catalog and get the Blue Wonder. If you follow the instructions it will work every time. Use a heat gun or hair dryer to make it faster. This is a good product for sure. I buy the Ferric Chloride in a powder...

Update I just got an email from Square because I questioned this action. The email says because of their other financial institutions they cannot give me a reason for theis action only that it cannot be reversed and was final. What a business decision, liberal turd heads for sure

I used Square for over three years with no problem. Same name and bank account. My business has grown a lot with the knives I make for the museums from the steel off of the old ships. I don't know what the problem was except a friend said it was because someone got into the whitehouse and had a...

I have been taking credit cards using the square reader for over three years now or about that long. In the last three months I have taken roughly $35,000.00 in credit card sales all going thru the square. Yesterday I got an email right after they put $1700.00 in my account. the email said that...

Folks if you are going to stabilize wood and sell it learn how to do it right. I have been using stabilized wood for over 20 years now and some of the stuff on the market is pure crapolla. If you are selling stabilized wood and it floats like a cork then it is not completely done, your business...
