[QUOTE="Bill Coye, post: 1358421, member: 10719"] Hey guys, I just had 20 blades cut and precision ground - CPM 154 CM stainless from Crucible Steel. Powdered metallugry addresses edge retention. I've used this steel before and will be able to keep all heat treating in-house. I also have two sheets of titanium for frames. These first attempts will be frame locks. Cost? Given the materials AND when they're market-worthy, they'll run high 200's. After the first of the year is target time frame for full-on folder production/screwing up/throwing things across the shop :). You gentlemen will see it all here. Thanks fellas and please swing by the table at Wanenmacher if you get the chance - nice to put a face with a name. BC [/QUOTE]
