I do agree with not an ideal design, however I love mine and was in the same spot, time was an issue. I use it alot but there is a learning curve to hit the sweet spot for what you are doing. Have had decent results. I like that everything is ready to go just hook up lp. If you can wait and...

Sounds like uber steel to me!! Would love to try it! I have bought from them in the past and have been very pleased with service and product. O-1, A-2 tool steels.

Whew, That is sweet.

I have had good luck with cleaning up the steel with mine. It is much slower and hard on drums. I am hoping to find the blaze ceramic in drums. I think they make them, just harder to find. I bet if there is enough interest in them and they are out there, Boss Dog could get them. Boss if...

Very nicely done!!!

I noticed that I have never introduced myself, so here goes. I have been making knives for a few years, but have been getting much more serious about it in the last couple. Most of what I do are EDC's, hunting, fillet, users in general in carbon steel. I do enjoy working with stainless...

There are several oscillating drum sanders out there for the same money, but are much slower and not as many sanding rolls available. I use a jet oscillating drum and love it- accurate but slow. I know all of my routers are open air and the metal shavings may do damage to the motor. The...

Thanks Les, I am treating this like a business from the get go, so I have been doing a lot of research on pricing, styles, techniques, and materials. My theory is make what sells. For me right now as a new maker, I can get the most out of 0-1. I can make a high quality knife while...

Thanks George, That's kind of what I figured. Fishing season is just around the corner so I think I will make a few fillet knives for the summer. I have some current orders to fill for a few hunters and EDC's as well. I am hoping the lull doesn't last too long, unless it opens the...

Hi All. I see a lull in my cabinet business coming up and would like to make a few knives to sell. I was wondering if knife sales are fairly slow now as well or are you having good sales this time of year. Are the prices dropping some or do they seem to be staying the same. I mainly...

What are the differences between Kydex and Concealex? I have been using concealex from Tracy and like it. It seems to form very tight to my knives. Almost too tight so you can't get the knives out even with out any fasteners. Also have you tried to make a belt clip with it? Seems like it...
