hello folks,
i'll be straigtforward, so you all see my position.
I am an experimentalist, always wanting to try out new stuff.
The situation asks that I make some very sharp small kitchenknives, like paring and boning knives ( we got about 100 chicken to slaugther, and sharpening ****** 440 blades all day isn't my idea of fun
). I think talonite is a very good for this, and i wanna try it out.
Now here comes the problem: I talked with Tom Walz, real nice guy, but shipping the stuff to here and paying back there seems to be a problem. I had this problem before, and Ivan Campos solved it by sending me some slabs of kydex in a trade. Now i wanna do another trade, but this time for talonite, preferably the thin stuff (warped is O.K, as Rob Simmonich said it was easy to straigthen). Sizes don't really matter, as long as i can derive at least one paring knife.
What can i offer you?
Reindeer horn, Stag, micarta, G-10, 52100 in bars, i have a little piece of K190PM left, Lots of Azobé, thuya wood, petrified oak.. lots of other woods, don't hesitate to ask.
If anything (or more things) would interest you, E-mail me, and let's talk about it! I am even willing to trade in some of my knives, as long as i get some talonite.
Do i sounds despeate? Nah
greetz & thanks in advance, Bart.
