I'm just about to start making 4 - 160mm petties and I'm having a hard time deciding on what combos to make so here I am asking you what you want. :wink:
I know what woods I'm going to use, I've got spalted maple & yellow/brown/blue dyed box elder burl blocks set aside already.
What I'm trying to figure out is what steels to go with (carbon O1 or stainless CPM154), if I should go wa or western, and what bolster materials to use.
I'm thinking that maybe some of you might be interested in these knives, and if so you could claim them and then pick which combo best suits you prior to me guessing and doing what I think is best. If you help me I'll return the favor and reduce the costs by discounting each knife. See details below....
I want to start work on these knives immediately.... No wait time folks! :cool2:
