Kelly's not on there for steel? Any chance of getting leather/kydex suppliers on there? I know a lot of the same companies carry them but maybe a "sheath supplies" section would be nice.

Awesome "culmination" of resources! Thanks for putting this together!
 
Yes i will get them/that all on there. It will be the ultimate when done,but keep sending emails with names of suppliers with there site and i will get to them--thank you-marekz
 
Bump because I wanted to make sure I didn't lose this and needed to subscribe.
Also, for the love of everything that is good in this world can someone sticky this please?
 
MDOYLe--its on there--hehe. Ok yall i have had around 6 emails with more to add. i will be updating this list within the week. If anyone can help me by posting suppliers ive missed on this thread-- it would be easier for me to click and paste. thank you for all the emailers. thanks ---marekz
 
I cant believe no one listed FlatGround.com for steel, thy have great prices.
 
Wow those are some good prices on sandpaper. I'm assuming you've used it and cuts well? I'm going to need some soon.

Yes , they are who I deal with and the paper works fine for me . Both for hand sanded satins on blades and the handles . I have also been buying my PSA sticky disc from them , but since they offer a cloth backed sanding sheet for 1/2 the price of pre-made disc , I am switching for the disc sander and will use the spray adhesive . Scrapes will be used for the handles .
 
Aldo now has a website for his steel sales

http://www.njsteelbaron.com/

Kelly Cupples has an email octihunter@charter.net

I now buy most of my steel from Aldo, great steel great prices, his website is still being built, go to the contact section and email or call him. Over the last couple of years I have been buying steel from him I have gotten good service and he is one of us, If I can't get a particular grade or thickness from Aldo I get it from Kelly.

List updates-- please post any new sites that you may know of. Thank you -Marekz
