    How super steels and Damasteel are made…

    I miss being in a workshop. His natural enthusiasm for pretty much every form of forging/metalworking is pretty infectious. Decent guy and a great channel.

    Is it worth it?

    This seems like a good place to ask the question; if I did want a really high quality, traditional English hatchet/axe, which brands or names should I be looking at?

    Folder with just a knife and saw?

    I didn’t know you could buy individual parts from Victorinox. I’d happily build my own. I’ll have a look, cheers.

    Folder with just a knife and saw?

    Folder with just a knife and saw?

    I did email the messer-ruch website but heard nothing back. The search continues. It’s not a big issue, I have knives, saws, Leathermans, and SAKs. It’s just one of those things I’d like to have.

    Sold Rob Evans Bushtool
