serious question. If INFI is the best blade steel out there then I would hope you could help me. I am a hockey player, have been for 31 out of 35 years. I have to sharpen my blades at least every other week. If i could get some blades made out of INFI steel, I should be able go weeks/months without a sharpening. That said, will you custom make me a pair of skate blades made from INFI?? I'll gladly send you the pattern. And I'll gladly pay the price for a good blade. This may be a market that you could expand on. If a skate manufacture sold skates with the best steel available, everyone would buy the product. Food for thought, let me know, Greg.

Edit: I did drink 3 bottles of wine tonight.
 
rofl, each blade is 11.5 inches long. 11.5x100=1150.00 per blade. ummm.... nevermind. lol.
 
tough call.
Do you happen to know what steel they are made out of?
Maybe something like properly heat treated 440c would be a big improvement if they use cheap steel.
I'm sure that many knifemakers could make them for you.
Good Luck.
 
"Just buy a goat. Then have some false teeth made out of INFI for him.

You'll come out cheaper."

Plus you get free growth aid for your lawn! And on a hot sunny day, you won't have to worry about your neighbors.
 
I think we're onto something.

Imagine an army of INFI-toothed goats taking over mowing duties across the country.

R&D Department needs to get on this matter soon.

GARTH??? BRING ON THE INFI TEETH!!!
 
Hay rappers have Gold teeth right? Why not rock the Infi teeth? hahahaah. You'll never have to worry about those chompers going through a walnut.;)

Infi teeth would be bad as all hell. You could be like that dude "Jaws" from all of the Roger Moore era James Bond movies. So awesome. You could simply bite through soembody's car door when they got you all pissed off.

I don't know what kind of steel they use, I could find out I guess. They rust really fast, dent/malform pretty easily, they never chip, but sometimes snap.

All i know is i have to stop posting after drinking tons of wine.
 
If anything, you should try to drink more wine...

Problem with wine is it sneaks up on me. I never realize i've drinken to much until i wake up in some odd corner of the house after blacking out 8 hours earlier.

Exactly... makes life interesting. If you're always waking up in the same place, how interesting is that? :D

I figure that any day that I wake up is a good day.
Not waking up might be a real downer, as in 6 feet down.
