    warwood/fauxcarta?

    Gorgeous knives man and thanks for the pictures! Is the texture similar to canvas micarta or more like linen or paper? Have you found it is as tough/durable? Yeah, I order from Jeff for loveless and acorn bolts and just noticed the warwood.

    (Rolling) Stand for No Weld Grinder?

    Make the stand like a dolley or hand cart. That way when down its solid, lean it back and wheels contact and you can move it around.

    Anyone recommend WaterJet cutting services for knife blanks ?

    kalamazoo grinder

    How much is it? I havent seen that version of the kalamazoo before. Personally if your just cleaning up bevels get a 1x30 from harbor freight with the one year replacement. If between a kmg and a 1x30 in budget I would recommend the Coote grinders. They are sweet machines, I have a kmg and...
