this weekend and i was pricing up some 01, but i found some old circular saw blades in dads shed so there getting chopped up now.
But before i found these i had found and priced 6mm x 30mm x 1 Metre for £17 is this about average or a bit much, i aint bought 01 before so im not sure.
cheers

what will you be making with 6mm ?

**leighwill1** · 14-03-12, 07:42 PM

was thinking that myself to be honest,

so i'm just going to get 3-4 mm stuff.

Nice thickness for a big bowie or a chopper

A big chopper or bowie is definately on the agenda, but for now i'm just doing little stuff.
i drew up a nessie on a old makita table top saw blade and cut that out today and i also profiled the blade ready for HT.
the main reason i'm doing stock apart from the fact i want too, is all my blades so far are handforged and apart from the cutting edge they are left rough and ready.
but my uncle who goes to a lot of military shows reckons he could sell my blades for me, so i just want a couple of shinys in 01 to give him too see how they go.
