    Damascus - is there a performance advantage ?

    LOL Very difficult to be answered as it is too generalized. If you ask if a certain form of Damascus will out perform stainless steel the answer could be yes or no according to the elements used in the damascus. Damascus is made by layers of high and low carbon content steel. It is then...

    Spyperco won't lock (kind of)

    Don`t worry. Just as Case does, Sog has knives that aren`t up to their normal high standard that they will stick in a plastic package and mass produce for retail store such as Lowes. Please don`t take offense to this. It is a Sog just as the Case knives Lowes carries are Case but as with the...

    Steels I should look for in a new folder?

    Good advice Gerry But I can get some awsome Damascus folders for less than $100.00. In fact I have posted a photo of a beautiful lockback folder on another thread that I can get for $65.00. There is some confusion about Damascus not only from members here but also worldwide. I travel...

    Steels I should look for in a new folder?

    I agree with most of the steel that you have listed above. The thing that most people do not research is the tempering technic of their "favorite" steel. For example, 440 is probably the most common steel used in modern knives. You will find that knives made all over the world have blades...

    Need major help in buying new folder.

    Really???! Wow, can`t believe that this was a surprise. Actually, there are several. The one that I`m speaking of is the Spyderco Byrd Model 8Cr13MoV. It is an awsome knife. Solid as any. Slick and quick opening with a solid lockback and an extremely sturdy stance. The knife is a Harpy...

    Spyperco won't lock (kind of)

    Be aware All that you need to do is contact Spyderco and the replacement will be in the mail. Be aware that Sog, like many other knife manufacturers, sometimes have subsidiary companies that make knives particularly for places such as Lowes and Walmart which aren`t exactly up to their...

    Knife sharpening machine wanted...

    OK I see that there`s no point or understanding for you here so I`ll leave this one alone. If you think that there is no difference in the performance of Damascus VS. standard steels, go ahead and take it to your grave. I guess my 20+ years in the business counts for zip...LOLOL LOL...

    Knife sharpening machine wanted...

    Uhhh If you read my post you would see that I stated the fact of the belts being used in the knife making process is well needed. I`ll try not to argue these points much but you state that Damascus isn`t different...You couldn`t possibly be more incorrect. Most knife companies use the...
