I'm looking for 1/8" x 1" x a minimum of 9" for CPM3V and 12C27. I've scoured the net and I'm at wits end. Direction to either or both would be a huge help. Thanks.
 
Hmmm well Aldo has CPM-3V in the range you desire. I know he can even precision grind it down for you if you need

I don't know of too many people who carry 12c27 but Tracy at USAknifemaker.com has .106 (a bit less than 1/8")

May be worth sending both of them an email (Or calling Aldo in his case) to see if they can help you out.

Hope that helps!
 
In addition to Aldo and Tracy, ask Chuck at Alpha Knife Supply, too.

Call all three during business hours. They often have stuff that's not on the website.
 
Chuck is supposed to be getting some 13C26/AEB-L. As for the 12C27, Admiral usually has it. 3V is not hard to find at all although the typical sizes you see are either .103 or .150.
 
I usually make bushcraft type knives in o1. would AEB-L be suitable for those kind of knives?
