We've added two new products to our growing range of knife making supplies - Pure Nickel and Micarta! Pure Nickel can be used in making Damascus steel or cladding carbon steels as it while it does not have any cutting properties it does resist acid to give a very bright vibrant shiny layer when paired with a carbon steel such as 80CrV2, 1075 or 1095 which give the dark layer. It can be used as well in 'sandwich' steel or San Mai to with a wrought Iron outer layer with the Nickel between the Carbon steel and Iron outer. We will be stocking the Nickel in 0.5, 1mm and 1.5mm thicknesses.
The other new product into our stocks is Micarta. Our Micarta is made using fabric that has been embedded into a phenolic resin which makes a dense material. It can be polished to a high finish or left rough for a grippy texture.
