Knife Blanks

I am sure this is subject that has been beat to death but I do not have a lot of time to research it. Where is a good place to get knife blanks?

There is some good deals on ebay if you are signed in. The biggest thing to do for good deals is to ask what the postage is and see if there is a discount on multiple purchases.

Are you wanting blades that only need to have the handles added and yer done? If you are looking for raw steel to make your own shoot an email to Kelly Couples at octihunter@charter.net he is really reasonable and if you order of $50 he ships for free.

Texas Knife Supply and Jantz are two of the bigger companies with catalogs for knife blanks and kits.

Re: knife blanks

What do you mean by knife blanks? If you mean knife blades that are already rough ground and ready for final grinding and polishing and having handles and hardware attached then Jantz probably has the largest sellection. If you want to have blades cut out of raw stock to your specifcations, give Admiral Steel a call.

Knife supply houses have the imports, ready to dress out.
Custom made blades in cable damascus come from Center Cross metal works.
CCIV also has videos to help with putting the kits together.
Blades are just the beginning.
Be blessed,
Gene O.
