Where do you order brass?

[Sprayman]

Hello, bladesmiths:

Any recommendations on where to order brass for guards? I notice USA Knifemaker has some, but I'd like to shop around a bit.

Thanks

McMaster/Carr usually has 3 or 4 different types of brass in all shapes and sizes for sale.

A local metal supplier would probably be your best bet price wise, metal supermarket or the like

You can also buy cast brass guards at places like "track of the wolf" that do "mountain man" reinactment stuff.

Tru Grit is an amazing company. Don't forget to also stock up on abrasives, epoxy, corbys, you name it!
