This is my first post an i apologize if this is posted in the wrong thread but i did not have any luck doing a search. I'm looking for a forge or maker that will cut a custom knife blank. Its not a crazy design or anything but i would really like to get it in 52100 or something comparable. I have been going through another forge whom in not sure if i can mention but i put my order in for two blanks back in December of 2014 and they still haven't made them and wont give a straight answer as to why its not getting done.....so Im ready to go elsewhere. Any nudge in the right direction would be greatly appreciated!!!

Yes i am :) Like i said i have been going through another knife forge (Can i say who or is that against policy?) but its been 7 months and they haven't finished the order or updated me despite 12-15 messages that i have sent. My purpose is a fixed blade EDC.....intended for light use and self defense applications. I have a crude drawing and picture of what i am looking for.....im just trying to get that design in a discrete size. Also i would like to get a trainer blade made in the exact same specs as well. Im going for a mirror polish but if that finish is not available i intend to try and achieve it myself. Also i would prefer a decent steel.....Im a huge fan of 52100 but i hear there is a lot of other choices that are great as well......had a benchmade that was ats-34 and it kept a great edge but i heard they are not fun to sharpen.....and i SUCK at sharpening lol. I appeciate if you know anyone who could fill the request :)

P.S. not sure if the pictures are going to post correctly...
 
**** please note Ive decided to go with 4 inches for the handle and up to 4 inches for the blade (not terribly concerned about the blade length i just want it to be aesthetically pleasing)
 
invalid attachment, you can upload to a photo host service like photobucket and post the image link...also are you looking for a finished knife or just a cut out blank?

Just the blanks....Ive got some Ironwood Burl scales im gonna attach and do the kydex myself as well :)

Like i said...4 inches for blade and handle and the one inch profile measurement is an approximation....i dont want it taken so literally that it looks weird.....that happened the last time i had a blank cut lol


P.S. i hope the photos worked out.....
 
the photos worked, what is the finished knife pictured? Hey if you are asking someone to copy anothers work you should ask the original maker for permission IMO.
 
I figured there was some kind of etiquette to that but I guess I figured that design might be pretty common.....anyways I'm sending the email right now :p
