Mikarta, where to buy

[Fiddleback]

Where do you guys buy Mikarta. I got great deals at Blade, and didn't realize how great they were, or I'd have bought a bunch more.

I get mine from TKS. www.texasknife.com

 

[Fiddleback]

Pops is crazy expensive. Texas KS is much cheaper, and Sheffield is a little cheaper than that even. Man it stinks because I was paying half this price at Blade Show.

 

[J.McDonald Knives]

Are you looking for blocks, scales, or pieces? I know TKS has good prices for scales.

their black G-10 is fairly cheap. 1/4x6" square for $9.49 I got a sheet of black paper micarta also. 1/4x12x12 for $12.28. Type in "garolite" in the search block. We call it micarta, they call it a form of Garolite. Same stuff.

 

[Fiddleback]

Yep. They have the linen Garolite and the Canvas Garolite too. And you can get rods and tubes of just about any size too.

But just one color.

They have G-10 and FR-4 in 4 colors. But their Mikarta is just one color.
