I read an article in one of the three blade mags (Blade, Knives Illustrated, or Tactical Knives) several months back where the writer was comparing NEW carbon steel blades to those from 10-40 years ago. He said he thinks that the age will actually improve a carbon steel blade, to a point.

I agree about it not mattering where the steel is made if it's made right.....The problem is most stuff made in those eastern countries is not made right as far as I can tell.

I guess my oldest two blades are the "Negrito Hunting Bolo"(Bowie with a 9 1/2 blade) made in the Philippines from a leaf spring and ONLY the springs temper. And a 6 inch hunter that a guy I knew (he died about 12 years ago and was in his 60's) made in high school shop class from an old disc blade.

Cause the heat treat counts a whole lot more than the steel they use....

I lost my credit card recently, so if they hit it, it bounced. Not to worry. Renee has my back as soon as the new credit card comes in. I'm looking forward to some 911 action! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />
Horned, dangerous, and off my medication.

I hope that no one else used your card Vic, the 911 is gonna be awesome. JJ sent me a PM and said it feels really good and he thinks he is going to order him one as well! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

At least in Southeast Missouri! PLUS a JJ Kydex sheath. Man that Boy has a fast learning curve. NICE THANK YOU JJ!
Had to chop up some limbs and do the fire thing (that I am still watching). I've already posted up pics that JJ took of my NEW 911 AND SHEATH so good it feels in the hand it does. Ok so I'm not Yoda but I tried.
