Does someone have extra celluloid or know who has it?Apparently the EPA shut down production and even air travel for the stuff.:mad:Yea,it is made out of gasoline and grinds that way:eek:,but nothing else has the bright vivid colors.Im looking for tortoise,christmas tree,or candy stripe.Vendors seem to only have the blah plastic stuff.If you have extra,or know of a vendor that has the real stuff,please let me know.Thanks!:D
 
Try Masecraft. They may still have some.
Celluloid can be a beautiful material, but it is generally unstable. I am hearing reports that knives I handled in celluloid as few as 6-7 years ago are starting to outgas and shrink.
 
Thanks Bill.Masecraft just has the blue opal left i think.Yea,the stuff is crazy.Can last 100 yrs and look great or shrink and curl in a few.I still like to have some on hand and use it on occasion.
