I miss Nellie's and Chopes. What steel(s) do you like to work with most?

Nellie's is awesome for breakfast...Then Chope's for lunch home of the 40oz!!!
I like the Carbon Steels just seems they get overlooked for the Newer Stainless Steels...Just my opinion but a well heat treated high carbon steel will work circles around most stainless. I do like some of the newer stainless like Elmax for sure but I do a lot of business with CPM154 and AEB-L they are easy to grind post heat treat. When asked about high carbon steels I like to demonstrate the quality of the edge of 52100 and W2 against CPM154 which is a well known stainless then I will bring out a Busse in SR101(52100 with Busse heat treat Killer quality edge performance) and show how well the 52100 and W2 stack up. Many people are surprised how well high carbon performs although it sacrifices corrosion resistance.

Hi,

Are you sure your mail adress is correct ? I'm trying to contact you for a comission and I can't manage to reach you (mail adress incorrect).
 
I believe it to be the same for the last 15 years. You may not have a membership level that allows access.

By the way asking me if I am "SURE" is not a good way to start out a conversation.

Read again, I wasn't talking to you. BUT, if you're up for a comission, I may need your excellent crafting.
