I am looking at purchasing a 3V blade blank -they are hardened 58-60-from jantz/ knife making dot com. My plan is to procure some micarta fasten and shape the handle making it "semi custom" for my personal use. The goal being to have a knife in a quality steel, fit to my hand and at a lower price than I would pay for production or custom blade.
My questions:
1 Does anyone have any experience with jantz blade blanks?
2 And any suggestions on handle finishing (I will be shaping handle w/ small drum sander (dremel type tool).
3 Cheap source of micarta? (not picky about color)
thanks
Dean
