Knife blade keeps rusting?

Thanks again Ed! Stay cool!

Wasn’t so much the slow delivery that got me, more so $10 to ship a gift certificate then they tell you they return the $10 but yet you have to call and ask for your $10/back. Just makes absolutely no sense to me! Hope I can save a fellow carver from going through the same....

I will try that, thanks. I use the Notto, white gold (I think it’s called)...

Great idea Claude!...

Funny you say that Ed, I originally had a leather sheath on it that when the rust started. I went to tubing but I guess the damage is already done?...

I have a knife from a well known tool maker and IMHO he is one of the best! I have many of his tools and never had any problems. My question is one of his knives I have keeps rusting. I run it on the leather belt ( on my sander/ sharpener) and the rust is gone. Cuts great and in a couple weeks it rusts...

Your right Claude, not for every application but when needed it’s a great knife! One of my favorites is an 1 1/2” upsweep knife....

[Gulf Coast Handyman]

That’s also a nice one! He really makes a fine tool at a decent price!

Mike calls this an 2 1/4” Sloyd, it’s an awesome tool and quickly becoming one of my favorites.

That’s exactly how customers should be treated, that is great to hear and I will be ordering from Greg in the future! I’m still confused as to how MDI has stayed in business treating people the way they do....

BTW, Hummul bought out TWCS, they also offer good service!

My wife placed an order with Stadtlander carving supply Monday 6/10 PM, it arrived today early afternoon (not even 3 days later), very fair shipping prices! Just great service! A couple months ago my sister sent me a gift certificate from MDI, they charged her $10 shipping to send the gift certificate....

I don’t have any of his knives but I do have a couple gouges. They are awesome tools, great quality and come nice and sharp!
