Simonich, Rob

"You won't hear me bragging much about my knives, my customers do it for me. I use what I feel are the best raw materials I can find. For blade steel, my favorites are D-2, ATS-34 and CPM-440V. I carefully heat treat, freeze, triple temper and hardness test during the blade making process. If a blade doesn't meet these specs, into the garbage it goes. When you first get a new knife from me, it will be extremely sharp. Don't be disappointed if it dulls quickly, as it is actually too sharp. Re-sharpening one or two times will get rid of the ""wire edge"", and then the blade will really start to perform. I use diamond stones of medium and fine grit, and I recommend you do too. I like how the edge then bites into what I'm cutting. I guarantee my knives in materials and workmanship..as long as you don't abuse them!! It looks impressive, but we all know a fine blade used as a chisel becomes a lousy chisel. Knives are for cutting, not prying or turning screws." Rob passed away in 2003.
