I work in a kitchen and have recently been given the task of taking over for our sharpening company (they are terrible). However since this is going to be regular sharpening for 3...

    Looking for a source for Tek lok belt loops or similar

    I usually buy them from Tracy at usaknifemaker but they are currently out of stock. Does anybody know of a source for these or a similar belt loop that allows for the knife to be removed without taking off the belt? thank you for any replies -Cameron

    neck knives

    Good "practice" Steel

    To be honest I would just get some basic 10xx steel. You have already spent quite a bit on tool acquisition and from Aldo you can get a 4' bar for about $15 plus shipping.
