SheepsFoot blade blanks

[Old Salt]

I am searching for a source for high quality stainless steel blade blanks in the sheeps foot patter or design. I am not interested in folders but in sheath knives. I am planning on making knives for sailors and perfer this blade design. Does anyone have any suggestions on where I should look? I have searched the 4 main knive making suppliers and no one carries what I am looking for in their catalogs.

If you cant find what you need, you might want to contact Ken Largin, he custom grinds blades as well as making complete knives. Im assuming youre looking for ground and heat treated blades. If you're just looking for blanks, I'd get a hold of a water-jet or laser cutter and have them cut to your specs.
