    Forged 1084 and Oosik

    Dang Robert, that is one of your nicest I have seen yet. And the sheath is off the hook. If I wasn't so busy (and broke) trying to make and sell knives myself, that's the kind I'd buy. Good work.

    durablanket forge liner..help

    I'm sure that Wayne is a good supplier, I know that Zoeller and Ellis are good. I've gotten durablanket from both of the latter, I liked Ellis custom knifeworks because if you get a slightly bigger piece (like for building two forges, which I did) you can get a good deal on cost per ft.

    World's best thread about grinders...

    Here's my two 2x72's. They are pretty rough but I'm making them work. The green one is an OLD Olympic Square Wheel that was set up for 4x72 originally with a 3HP 3PH motor. The hollow grinder is built with a 12" contact wheel that I pulled off of an OLD "Toro" brand industrial belt...

    Clay quenched hunter w/cocobolo

    Sorry if this counts as a bump, I guess that makes two now, and I'm not a paying member. Won't do it again, just had to drop the price to $200 since I dropped it over on BF. Thanks, guys.

    Greetings from Connecticut

    Hey there from another new poster. You know, a variable speed belt grinder does not make a lot of noise, and you can always sweep the floor when you are done... If you want to try working with files, the book "how to make knives" has some good info in Richard Barney's section on that very...

    Clay quenched hunter w/cocobolo

    “Slippard.” Forged, full tapered tang slow drop point hunter, flat ground with dovetailed bolsters. As are a couple other knives I’m selling right now, the blade is heavy coil spring from a GT Mustang, I think it’s 5160 (and it heat treats like 5160) but I’m not gonna lie, just making an...

    what stone do you prefer (oil, water or diamond)

    I like water stones, although I only use them to sharpen my straight razor. They cut quickly and finely, and don't have nasty oil involved. They do cost, however. For sharpening all other knives, I generally use my 1x42, first grit belts, then a leather strop belt with green rouge. Nice and...
