Like it says anyone making their own blades?
I've got experience shaping and working steel, made a few chisels. Any recommended or preferred steels?

I've tried it once or twice... 154 is the choice for stainless.

Might want to read through the threads here.

Yup

Sir,

there are quite a few that do professionally here, some guys like me buy blanks and apply handles as a hobby, others like D& T & Rick Menefee make a living at it and go as far as the blacksmithing level. Read and enjoy!
