Blade:
Hello All,

I have been checking out the forum for a week and find it very interesting so I decided to register.

I make custom knives and like to make and fix tools.

I have a Burke Millrite mill a Hardinge dv59 and a Kerry 11 x 24 lathe, also have a Linley jig bore and a bunch of different belt grinders and other tools. I have a couple of burgmaster drill presses and a regular drill press also.
I am always on the lookout for tools, I guess you could say I'm a tool junky.

Take care,

Welcome to the collective :borg:

Would love to see some of your knives. I have always had an interest in doing my own. How far do you take it? Do you start from blanks or smith your own?

I buy raw material for the blades and the liners, usualy stainless and titanium or damascus for the higher end knives. the materials come in sheets or flat bars and I lay out my patterns and cut out the parts, then I heat treat the blades and grind them and do all of the finishing. When I figure out how I will post up some pics, things are a little different here for posting images.
