I buy blades from any place I can get them. E-bay, flea markets, blade shows. Got any you want to sell? | |||

So do you sell these knives?? | |||
|

I sell a few every once in awhile. A few folks here on AR have bought a couple. Usually I give them to friends and family. When I have some just sitting around I'll sell them. | |||

Well if you buy the blades from "where ever you can get them" remind me not to buy one!! They are nice handles though. the chef | |||

Figured you to be a smart ass that's why I gave you the answer I did. Where I get my blades is really none of your business. Now lets see some of your knife making skills. | |||

I have to disagree about it not being a buyer's business where the maker gets his product from. There are makers out there that are selling damascus blades made from whatever they can get their hands on, as compared to what you and I know to be a known compatible pair of steels. Regardless of however the potential customer acts, a maker should take pride in his work and materials. I for one would be happy to tell folks that I got my steel from Aldo Bruno, Del Ealy, or if it were Devin Thomas stuff. Or that I had my blades cooked my Paul Bos. That should add to the assurance that you are producing a quality product. Oh, and if you want to see some of my work I would be glad to post some of it later on when I get home. | |||

Well they've got nice handles, that much is true. In my business I've come to realize that you buy the best to make the best.. An elcheapo steak is just that no matter how much I dress it up. I'd also be proud to tell a customer where I got any of my ingredients. I'd damn sure not tell him it wasn't "any of his business" the chef | |||

Great job with those knives. I really like the first one with the maple burl handle. Keep up the good work. Greg | |||

You are an amazing knife maker, your sheaths are blah though. Maybe take a look at some Scandinavian style sheathes like thos made by Roger Bergh and Matias Styrfors. | |||

Very beautiful knifes! As an hobby knifemaker envy overcomes me when I see such excellent knifes. Congratulations! Hans | |||
