You wanna TRADE.....

[Naboyle]

It's been a few months for this thread. Thought I'd bump it and see if anyone had anything new to trade.

Glad to see this thread get bumped again. Recently I picked up some old wrought iron and I realized just how much steel I have collected. Everything from automotive leaf springs to industrial chains (chainsaw, forklift, and some that weighs 50lbs per 3ft), of course enough cable to reach Mobile, large bandsaw blade from a saw mill (not L-6). Large roller bearings from train engines to earth movers. Geez I'm a hoarder. I'm working on really making nicer knives. I love wood burls, stag and yet to work with horn. And large Black Diamond double cut files...yep can't get enough of those. lol help me clean up around my shop.

I have books, steel, wood, ivory and tools to trade. Teddy

I have DVDs listed to trade. What's weird is i started to bump this thread last night
I have Chris Crawford slipjoint video, Wanye Goddard cable damascus video, Chuck Burrows sheath video, S R Johnson subhilt video and Bill Wiggins forging a hunter/utility knife start to finish. Looking for Books or DVDs in trade

Teddy, I'm curious about that wood and ivory. Take a look at the junk I have listed, also note I have a lot of old wrought iron (some dating back to the 1830's) from low quality to some that was such a high quality that I had trouble determining it was wrought. lol.

I have elephant ivory, walrus ivory, whales tooth, boar tusks, and fossilized ivory. I have all kinds of woods, some burl and some exocitics. Unfortunately, I'm not to big of a fan of wrought iron.

I also have a book (How to Make Knives by Richard Barney and Robert W. Loveless) that may hold someone's interest. Looking for books and dvd's only. Teddy

this is a great thread , back to the top with much interest !!

Teddy what kinda tools do you have for trade?

[jmccustomknives]

I totally forgot about this. Perfect for the beginner bladesmith. I built this from a section of RR track. It weighs about 150lbs in total. I made many a knife on this (like the one on it). It has gotten moved out of my shop and needs a new home.
