Well I did it

[hughewil]

I ordered some 1084 from Aldo.

I will still finish up making some knives from the old files I have, just to be sure I am confident I can grind the proper angles before I work with the 1084.

Nice now go order more because you never order enough the first time.

 

[dperk]

So true!

 

[hughewil]

well after reading that I called and changed my order. I went from one 48" piece of 1/8 to one piece 48" 1/8 and one piece of 48" 3/16 I hope your all happy.

When it shows up and my wife rips me a new one I am blaming all of you!

Compared to the price of shipping, the steel is dirt cheap.

 

[dperk]

you still didn't get enough

 

[Mike Morehouse]

Hughewil, you are hooked. And tell your wife that you can make lots of money (to spend on equipment).

Yeah, that!

 

[SBuzek]

Maybe a typo,he just forgot to put the 0 behind the 1.

Smart Move :thumbup:

For 13 some bucks or whatever it costs it makes sense to combine shipping on two pieces of stock.

I expect 8 feet of steel to last me quit a while. Thats a lot of bench grinding.
