John,
And everyone else! Happy Thursday!
I became a stainless devotee years ago when I could pretty much watch the 1084 I was grinding for my first few knives, Rust while I worked on it from the salt air & at times, heavy moisture pour down the alley of the Garage/Shop of mine.
If you love Carbon Steels, Try AEB-L And yes, I get it from Aldo! It grinds almost as easy as a Carbon Steel and has very good Corrosion resistance, Gives a fine grain, wicked sharp edge too!
I've heard good thing about AEB-L. Lots of straight razors made of that. Could maybe make fer a good fillet knife too!
Be ware fillet knives are VERY DANGEROUS to make, that's why a lot of makers don't make them.
Interesting.
I. Did. Not. Know. That. (Johhny Carson)
Can you elaborate why (if you know)? Maybe because they're so small and thin?
Duke of all things fishy- take the dots out of C.O.D.
Laurence- I have heard good things about Aeb-l. (sent you a pm)
Scott- Thanks for the advice there, looks like that's a bit of a different ballgame.
COD, lol, a fish. Herp derp.
I might consider the North Arm fillet in the mean time. S35VN isn't too shabby, though the price is a bit higher than I'd like for a CNC'd blade. But if they're hard to make, that could explain it too.
I'd like to make a very early nomination for the name of the Duke of all that is fishy's filet knife.
How's the Catalina sound?
And yes, I want one when they happen.
Oooh, perfect name!!! :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup:
