I'm looking to purchase my winter supply of knife making materials.I've used Texas knife Co & a couple of others.I've heard some of you talking about a Co. thats less expensive. Any help would  be appreciated.Rick....

I like Pops knife supply and Alpha knife supply for micarta and G10. I order belts from Supergrit, True-grit, and USA knifemaker.
I get most of my wood from Fleabay.
Most of my steel I get locally.

Thanks...

I buy mostly from Jantz. I get my stabilzed wood from Alpha Knife supply and desert ironwood blocks and scales from Arizona Ironwood. Belt from Trugrit.

If you can handle shopping just once a year the best place is the Blade show in Atlanta first weekend in june. you can get virtually anything you want or need. multiple vendors are there not just knife parts but also vendors selling grinders, belts and other machinery. you can see and handle the stuff before you buy.Its maybe a 10-12 hour drive from Coldwater. not bad if you can get a couple guys to go with you to split the gas. if you dont want to spring for a hotel you can crash at my place, its not the crowne plaza hotel, but its free.
God Bless

Thanks Uncle Buck but between work-kids-grand kids- making bows & knives I have very little time for travel.I would love to attend a knife show like that & learn from the pros.Rick...

Check out AKS and Halpern's for both handle material, blade steel and titanium.
