    Hey, Don! I am truly honored, my friend! I loved the displays on your shelves. I especially love that horned toad! lol. I remember the first time I ever caught on of them critters. I picked him up and was showing him to a friend when all of a sudden that lil' sucker shot blood out of his eye. I had never seen that before and I thought that I had injured him. I immediately dropped him and he scurried away, lickety split! It was only later on that I discovered those tricky little devils do that as a defense mechanism to fool their adversaries. It worked on me!

    Anyhow, I'm pleased to have you as a friend! Have a great weekend!

    Hi Don,

    I hear you're looking for 1070 Carbon steel.

    Here are some potential steel sources:

    1) New Jersey Steel Baron

    2) Admiral Steel

    3) Jantz Supplies

    4) Texas Knifemakers Supplies

    Hope this helps.

    Good Luck
