Hello knifemakers!,
I have heard a lot of talk about Bohler steels, I have talked a lot about them, have tried a few and LOVE them, hear other people are loving them. I've heard some of their new high end steels are set to take the map in a lot of catagories, namely vanadis 4e in cutting competitions. One thing I continually hear is the question of availability, "that looks great, but where to get it? , minumum thickness... etc"
Well I have spoken to the wonderful women at my local Bohler office, who has been supplying me with knife thickness pieces of steel sized to my requests, and I told her about all this discussion and the whispering of wanting BU steels at knife specs and non-industrial sized ordering. I told her there was a huge untapped market of blade crafters they would be wise to work with. Do you want to know what she said??...... "Send them my way."
For those of us looking at the usual supply sites and trying to navigate Bohler sites to find a supplier with any interest in this type of size ordering, THIS IS HUGE!
Her name is Fran, she is the operations manager at the Auburn Massachusetts Bohler office and her number is. 1-508-757-3500
She will set you up on their order roster and she has been a saint in finding what I have searched for and she made it clear she would do so for you as well! Spread the word of this good news!
Happy and safe grinding, and may all your blades be sharp ... - Blackhands
