Knife Blank Making?

[madbomber1998]

So I have some knife blade designs I'm working on that I want to do for me and a few friends and family. Where can I get a dozen blades of the same design CNC'd or whatever for me? Basically let me do the heat treating and final edge work done myself? I don't feel like doing most of the grinding on a bunch of blades like this. Am I totally confusing you guys?

Basically I'd like to get some blade blanks made up with my own design. lol. I already do good handle work, etc.

You can use a Water jet cutting Co

Do they do full 3d type cutting like a 3d CNC machine, or do water jets just cut blade outlines? Never looked into it before.

Know anyone good who will do small batches, like 6 at a time?

I believe it can do many things a CNC can plus others a CNC cannot.

H20knife on this forum has cut out some kitchen blades for me...Pretty reasonable too I might add. Mark is a great guy. email addy h2oknife@me.com

Not sure what you are talking about 'platypus, The waterjet is a CNC. If you are comparing it to a CNC mill or lathe, your statement doesn't really make sense. Pretty much apples and oranges here. If I am mistaking the context, I apologize!
