ha is doing the Large nbillets for the build

[metal99]

Ohhhh ok see your first post wasn't really clear. It almost seemed like you were saying that you made that blade yourself. Then I looked at it a few times and really recognized that shape from somewhere. Thats when i remembered that I was checking out the alabama site and sure enough there it was. I thought you were claiming to have made that knife sorry.

[samcro]

No Sir ! I can not clame his design nor will I . I can not swing a hammer any more due to injuries from the Army , Lacy is forging my blades and Billets for the guns . sorry for the implacation .

It seems like there is something strange going on here. First you say its your steel, Quote:new blade with 4 steels (My blend ) and wont tell us about it. Then after another member points out you are getting kit knives (as are most I saw at your link to your web site are from the Jantz catalog) , then you admit its not yours, and that you do not forge. then WHY post it here in the first place?

[samcro]

Well I will tell you this the edit of post were disabled and i was chatting with a few folks at the time of my answer of Yes ! it is my steel and made by Lacy Smith. My Knives are NOT Kit knives Nor of Jants Knife Co. as for Forging Blades I did ,Have , and do lower level folds , However, NOT folds of the 400 + range .

As with any Steel Blend If a knife maker wishes to Patten their Blend it can NOT be Public Information before the patten process is compleated . So NO I can NOT share the composition of it Just yet .
If you have any Questions By all means feel free to chat with me
