Shop updates and pics

Just ordered:
NITRO-V
0.110 which is 3/32

Should make some sweet kitchen knives and thin Apex blades*. Hardness is my choice. Most likely 63HRC.


*Apex blades in this steel start at $200. Great deal!
 
AEBL is a great choice :thumbsup: Especially in thin stock for slicers. Gives people a cheaper option against the more exotic steels you're using. Z-finit sounds very cool though !!
I still have yet to use it. But I can try it out one of these days!
 
Alright so. On todays menu we have.
ELMAX.
In 0.220
And 0.156
One mini kephart is already spoken for from the 0.156.
I can make another small blade from that steel. (7inches or less OAL)

For the thick Elmax.
At least one Camp 1 model
A possible fighter based off the camp 1. Sharpened swedge, maybe a slight recurve.
If there is enough steel left, a little chunky blade.

Camp 1 model starts at $465
-includes G10/micarta standard
-kydex sheath.

Comment here to claim or DM me.
 
Spectacular failure yesterday.
Vanax blade broke in my hand.

How?

No idea.
Emailed Chuck AKS and he cant come up with a reason either.
Major bummer because the blade was nearly done. I was working on handles.
