No, I have not checked yet. But I still want one o_O

I haven't been around in a looooog time, but at one time I planned on making knives. Nowadays I could really use a cane as a walking aid. So I thought....a sword cane. Anyone got one for sale? Must be usable ...made or ready very soon. I am also looking for someone to put together blades (all...

Yes. I would use 'Tix". you can get it from www.riogrande.com. Make sure you get the right flux to use with it. Additionally when it comes soldering anything---clenliness is next to godlyness. Clean with denatured alchol. Make sure the parts fit together perfectly. If you are around Cincinnati...

I would strongly advise against using that solder as the flow temperature (1350 degrees f) is very high. There is a good chance that it will harm the blade. Rather, use a low temp solder like 'Tix' or 'Stay-bright' which flow at about 400 degrees. In addition, you will need a torch setup capable...

That's a really nice knife. PM me with the balance due if you want to sell it for that amt. Paypal ready...

You can find any and all accessories for a dremel or flex-shaft at www.riogrande.com. The shank sizes come in 1/8" or/and 5/32". Make sure you get the right one for your machine.

I haven't been around in a long time, but I still lurk...:). For me, the best setup for soldering guards is a acetylene/air , one tank rig like a Pres-to-lite. It does not use bottled oxygen, only acetylene. The cylinder is refillable at any welding gas shop. A benefit of this system is that it...

If you are close to Cincinnati, I have about 3 gallons to get rid of. NO SHIPPING. I tried that once and all I got was a message that the oil had leaked, no pictures, and NO TRADE GOODS. Not even a thank you.

Ray, no cancer is GREAT news. Now on to fixing that shoulder. Looks like God has you under his wing. Keep the faith and the faith will keep you. And thank you guys for your prayers and support for me. They have meant a lot to me.

I will be setting up at the "National Muzzle Loaders Rifle shoot" in Friendship, In. This weekend (June 10 thru the 13). I will be selling all my steel, ivory, stag, and wood supplies, and tools. Bruce Bump file guide, and other jigs. Everything will go. I have annealed D2, 1095,1084, and other...

I'm sending special prayers for your lung issue...and some normal prayers for your other issues. It's scary. Stay strong and keep your faith. God will provide... I know it's scary because I have recently gone through finding out that I have stage 4 lung cancer and have an operation scheduled...

Jeweler's saw blades come in sizes from 10 (largest) to 10/0 (thinnest). The correct saw blade to use measures 3 teeth for the size of the metal to be cut. Different sizes for different gauges of metal. Don't try to cut hardened steel...unless you have a million saw blades and handle frustration...

Guys, thanks for all the good thoughts. I really appreciate them.

Hey Mark...I will be setting up in the primitive mkt. during the spring shoot and fall shoots.. I plan on selling the rest of my steel and supplies as there are always plenty of good knife-makers. I will have ivory, stag, wood and leather for sale. Stop by and say hello.

I have been around for a while. I have been a goldsmith for 40 years. I have just been diagnosed with lung cancer. WHY...because I have been too stupid to wear a dusk mask. I am in Cincinnati, Oh. I have a lot of steel and accessories. I don't want to ship. If you are near Cincy, Oh and can...

How much????

Got it...

Grizzly, I didn't look for an insurance company, I looked for an agent. I got lucky and found a young agent just starting out. This guy worked his butt off looking for companies until he found a company. I have been with JM, General, and a couple of others whose name I have forgotten. I have...

When polishing steel, I will use a medium hard felt wheel, rather than a stitched buff. I use a 1/2 hp, 3450 rpm buffer with a 4" wheel. I feel the felt wheels are not as 'grabby'.

I would question that advice. Starting over after bankruptcy is not as easy as this lawyer made it sound. Your credit is shot, your reputation suffers, and you're stuck with a HIGH interest rate on any credit you may need. I agree that a LLC is a great venue for a small, starting business...but...
