Source for inlay templates ?

[Taximanny]

USA knife maker is out of templates and looking for another source for there water jetting.
Is there another source for this kind of stuff?

Ovals, shields, etc.

I think I've all but given up on USAKnifemaker ever having much of anything in stock anymore. Unfortunately, I think they're really about the only place that offers (offerED) anything like that.

I believe Great Lakes Waterjet was their supplier for that kind of stuff, though if you want to have them made yourself, I'd recommend contacting Mark Vanderwest @ Leading Edge Fab. Prices are typically a bit better, and turnaround time is unmatched.

I hear what you are saying....
I just waited I know two months for a particular screw to come back in stock.
Seems like they are always out of stock on the popular items... You would think they would catch on.

Thanks for the info about templates.

Yep, Mark Vanderwest @ Leading Edge Fab is the guy you want. Much Better quality product also.

I have around 24 designs in .060" thick 410 SS with matching 1095 plates.
Fiber laser cut - better than the waterjet cut version.
