Hey every one just want to let you all know that the takefu steel is finally here.

We have been successful in getting just over 2000 pounds of Takefu, cutlery steel imported from Japan.

we have 3mm, 4mm, and 6mm thicknesses in V-toku II san mai with stainless cladding,

3mm, 4mm and 6mm in vg10 DPS, 15 layer suminagashi san mai, this is nickel and stainless Damascus cladding on a solid core.

And powder metallurgy, SG2 stainless core with DPS, 15 layer suminagashi san mai cladding.

we also have a small amount of sg2, VG10, Cos and V-toku II solid in bar stock available.

this is available is standard bars 1 1/4, 1 1/2, 2 and 2 1/ inches wide in 12, 14 and 16 inch lengths as well as custom cut sizes and sheets. we have a price break for quantity purchases and sheet sizes. material and sizes can be mixed for discounts
 
Thanks a lot!!!

I was going to try and buy less steel this year and you post this. Oh, well, that resolution is gone.
 
Bill, I am familiar with the kinda familiar SG2 and VG10, but could you tell us a bit about the other two, the Cos and the V-toku II?
 
Hmmm. I saw older post where you said that the V-toku II is similar to Blue #2. Is the CoS kind of like a "VG 10 Super?" Really good one of cobalt in that stuff! Where can we get pricing and more detailed specs like core thickness on the san mai stuff?
 
Prices are quite reasonable! Might have to order a few bars.
 
Its in the for sale section. I was going to roder some solid bars. I went hunt'n, came back that same evening and it was all gone already:grumpy:
