Title: Those who have knives on order
Post by: Ray Hammond on November 19, 2008, 06:50:00 PM

My heat treat oven isn't finished yet, so I have to farm that out to someone....its taking a long time to get them done!

As if that wasn't enough, I've had a devil of a time getting damascus billets of late.

My two suppliers tell me they are running at full capacity.

Then last week I thought we were getting some shipped and they built the wrong pattern!

Don't give up the ship on me....half the billets should leave Saturday and the rest next week so I will be back in business pretty quick. Maybe in a week more I will also have my batch of heat treated blades back to complete about 20 knives before Christmas...if my sanity lasts that long.
