Okay, we've already been wowed by Tom's beautiful TNT project, and now we have it on good authority that Tom has purchased some CPM-3V. The potential for a union of these two elements just seems too perfect. So how 'bout it Tom, any chance there's a TN3 on the horizon?

well I havent really bought any yet...I am in the thinking about it and pretty soon I will stage....but yes....I plan on getting some and trying it out....maybe a few blades for the TNT model....but I am sold on the talonite n titanium rustless feature...its hot and damp here you know....and a big pond full of salt water surrounds the place!!

Tom,
If you do get some make sure you try a couple larger blades (> 6") - this is where 3V really shines - has 2-3 times the impact resistance of D-2 & A-2 with great edge holding, though not as rust-resistant. It works pretty darn well in smaller blades too as evidenced by the 4" boot knife Rob made for me that is extremely nice & super sharp.

Have a great weekend!

Tom - don't forget to post pics of it when you get it done
