Hi

[Guest]

Hi, I'm a collector who wants to branch into making, and I live in the townsville area. My interests lean towards the tactical/utility/survival style knives, as that's where my experience and background is. My knifemaking experience is pretty non existant so I'm keen to learn all I can. Firstly, where is a good place to get steel from up here?
Cheers,
CF

Welcome to the forum.

You will get plenty of help from the members here.

I suggest you ask your questions in the General Blade Discussion sub forum and the Wanted sub forum of the Exchange.

Hi cheeky,

Welcome to the forum.

There's a member on here who goes by the name of 'niroc' who sells steel. He has some 1075 in a good size to start with.

Hey CF, sounds like you've come to the right place. This is where makers meet collectors, and some collectors become makers!

Follow Dutchy's advise and just read though some of the threads, it won't take you long to find what you're looking for.
