Hey guys,
I'm about out of steel and need to order more. My question is I want one carbon steel and one stainless to offer for sale. I have only sold knives the last 5 months or so and don't have alot out there to get as much feedback as I would like. I have only used 80CRV2 and 01 to this point.
I have been using a few I have kept but nothing for processing game yet (hope that changes soon) so I don't have alot to base my steels off yet so turning to the more experienced guys.
I plan on making and selling mostly all hunting knives maybe a few edc so my main focus is cleaning whitetails and the trapping guys so lots of skinning coons and such which you tend to contact bones alot skinning them out.
What is a good carbon steel to work with grinds easy ect..and performs well holds edge good and all that. I was thinking A2 giving it a shot and for stainless maybe cm154 or AEB-L but have not clue on the stainless as I have not used any yet.
Last not I will be sending out for heat treat.
Thanks in advance
Justin.
