That's kinda a trick question.....
I Almost like All of the steels.....uhm, but I really like tough steels that get good and hard....if I was only allowed to have 1 steel for everything, id pick AEB-L or her sisters....

In my stash I've got A8mod, 3v, 8670,_procut, Nitrov/Aebl, 15n20,wolfram, m4, CD1.....but so far my Fav would be Cruwear. It's just so well balanced. But it's pricey.

Nice! I do love my AEBL. And my CPM3V. I have a small supply of 15n20 that I've made one kife out of. Its performed great for an eyeball in the forge and canola oil quench. I need to do another in my parks 50.

It means the World to me that anyone actually cares.... :)
I originally thought I would be the only one that liked my work.

The reason I give them away like I do, is because I get so much from this place....Thank You.

Thanks.

I've always enjoyed the "how it's made" type shows, so the fact that you and some of the other makers show how the sausage is made is really cool!

I agree....when I was buying more knives I always enjoyed the little peeks, and seeing progress.

Also what I find interesting is some guys are the opposite, and they want a total surprise. Not seeing it until they open the package....
For me, that's kinda crazy the amount of trust they have to have....

In the end, I try to make everyone happy.
Hopefully. :)

I think most of my sheaths would be considered "cross-draw".
I don't intend them to be used that way though.
On purpose designed knives I try to design the right sheath. But I don't think most people use my sheaths? When carrying on the hip, I prefer edge forward, to grab with reverse grip.
So I design my sheaths "backwards" to most.

Here is one from awhile ago

Ok ok what's my knife made.from.....It usually doesn't matter to me!!!!!😉. Steel is usually one of the last things affecting my choices.....😜

It (steel) doesn't really matter to Me either.

I love knives. It's a passion. It's a Love/Hate relationship..... That's why you know it's good.

Had a bad week. I normally do, haha nothing new.
But, I Kinda hate knife making This week. -Venders.BS.

I'm not going to start whining, I feel like I do that too much....haha. :/

Long story short, I need this knife to be Fun.
I need the winner (who ever that is, or Isn't) to have fun with it.....I like it, I think they will too.


I panicked a bit, because this is a new steel for me....I haven't worked with it yet. Small batch, maybe 5-8 knives. Which is good!
Today, I emergency ground a new blade. For me to test out. Extreme angles. Chisel cut. Yes, it's ground sharp in the picture. So far so good, cut lots of boxes, and chops....will beat more on it this week.
Better than the 18 blades I just Scrapped
