[Dave Martell]

I'm selfish and want to see how you do stainless over carbon forging. Of course I'll settle just for finished knife pictures too.

 

[Marko Tsourkan]

[shankster]

Father in law???

 

[Marko Tsourkan]

Father in law???

actually it's very similar to doing the wrought iron san-mai different heat ranges and more particular thermal cycling required though.

I wish I could have Bill Burke on call to do odd jobs for me.

 

[Chef Niloc]

Umm kitchen shears would be cool.

Right, but not too many do it successfully. At least I haven't seen many.

 

[StephanFowler]

very true, thus the reason I've not tried it yet (that and I have PLENTY on my plate atm)

 

[Bill Burke]

Niloc, I might have that under control. going to do some stainless damascus and then maybee the kitchen shears WIP.

Stephan I use less heat for the stainless than for wrought.


Oh yeh I'M BACK

 

[Dave Martell]

Welcome back

Bill -

I'm curious. I saw that many of the knives that you make are cladded.

Do you make un-cladded carbon steel kitchen knives? What steels do you use? And, MOST importantly, do you have any pictures of any un-cladded carbon steel kitchen knives that you've made before?
