Free Corian:

I started my knifemaking several years ago by adding handles to purchased blade blanks and assembling some folder kits. At that time, I purchased a quite a variety of corian samples to be used as scales for some of these knives.

I've since moved on to composites and natural materials for handles on the knives that I grind, so I would like to give this corian to someone who may use it.

I already have it packaged in a USPS priority mail small box, and will send it to the first person who will offer to pay the shipping cost.

Corian, although a little brittle (be careful if fastening using peened pins) makes a great handle for kitchen knives, as it can go through the dishwasher without ill effect.

Here's a photo of the pieces. Click the photo for a high resolution image.




Take care,

I will take it if still available, thanks.

PS: Thinking about it I realize that I am not that NEW at knifemaking so I'll leave this generous opportunity for someone else.

Patrice: I'll keep you in mind, in case nothing works out on other takers.

mostho: I wasn't thinking about the possibility of sending internationally. I already have this packaged in a USPS priority box for domestic shipping only. Sorry.

I'll take it. I will put it to good use. Thanks. Pm me your PayPal address.
 
I have a similar sample pieces, in reality I have about 200 square pieces all kinds of colors. Unfortunately those are very small to use it as a scale. But they are great to use as bolsters, especially for kitchen knives.
