Remember how hard nickel silver was to get two years ago? Well, it's happening again. I can continue to put people on backorder, but at this point, I'm really not sure when I can provide a delivery. Sorry.

	Stay-Brite Solder Perfect for knifemakers, this low temperature ( 435 degree) solder is 5 times stronger than ordinary solders. 4 % silver, 96% tin, cadmium free. Kit contains enough solder and flux for a good  dozen or more knives

	Epoxy Devcon 2-Ton epoxy earns it's name by being one of the strongest commercial quality  epoxies available. Comes in equal parts A and B that, when mixed, will give you superior strength on all of your knife projects. Bonds wood  and  metal with a clear, waterproof bond that cures in 30 minutes ( I still like to let it cure overnight though).  The  large 9 ounce size ( two 4 1/2 oz. bottles) is enough for a couple of hidden tang knives or a bunch of slab scales. The convenient 1 ounce syringe should be good for one hidden tang or a couple of slab scales.

	Specialty Cyanoacrylates (Super Glues)  ( NEW!) For most of your household uses, those little tubes of super glue that you buy at the drugstore will work just fine. These two cyanoacrylate glues are in a totaly different class. Flash Black Rubber Reenforced Cyanoacrylate: Flash Black is an industrial strength super glue ( identical to Loctite 410)  that overcomes the two weaknesses of normal super glue:  their brittleness and tendency to soak into porous materials without offering any adhesion. Slightly less thick than tar and since it cures in about 20 seconds, it is quickly replacing epoxy in most of my workshop applications. Actually much stronger stronger than epoxy. Among other things, I now use this exclusively to attach scales to the tang prior to pinning, and am finding new applications every day. Flash Water Thin  Cyanoacrylate Provides a quick, easy and economical way to stabilize soft, porous  or irregular woods such as burls. Soaks in like water and hardens to give you a durable, workable finish.  I add a few drops to the back of a scale before mounting to the tang,  shape the handle and then add a few more drops over the entire surface. After it soaks in and cures ( just a few seconds), final finishing can be done. Provides a hard, durable surface that needs no additional protective finish.   Waterproof and impervious to almost everything.  Isn't space-age technology wonderful?   Both supplied in 1 ounce bottles. Flash Black Rubber Reenforced Cyanoacrylate , 1 ounce: Flash Black NCK-CY-BLACK $ 7.95 Flash Water Thin  Cyanoacrylate, 1 ounce Flash Water Thin NCK-CY-THIN $ 3.99 Helpful hints: Keep the Flash Black off your hands or it'll be there for a week. Also, to extend shelf life indefinitely, store these in the refrigerator between uses.
	1/8 " Carbide Drill Bits
		1/8" Carbide drill bit  Improved Design!	NCK18CARB	$3.10
		Notes on use: these drills are pure carbide and are easily hard enough to drill through even hardened steel knife blades for pin holes, etc. The tradeoff with hardness, as with blades themselves, is that they are VERY brittle. These should only be used in a drill press and used with patience. Drill for a moment, back it off and repeat. A few drops of oil will help. As a rule of thumb, don't drill anything thicker than twice the diameter of the drill , or 1/4" maximum. Do not use these for drilling softer metals like nickel silver or brass ( use your normal drills for this). These drill will have a limited life expectancy  because of their brittleness, but on an average, you should be able to do four or five  knife blades.
		3/32" Carbide drill bit        Even more brittle.	NCK332CARB	$2.50
		Carbide Rasps Nothing, with the exception of diamond of course, is harder than carbide. I use these carbide rasps in my rotary Moto-Tool to "whittle" handles to shape, including the metal guards. You might also find them extremely useful in enlarging pin holes in hardened knife blank handles. When you want to use a 1/4" pin but only have a 1/8" hole, these are a lot easier to use than drilling. Surprisingly hard ,  durable and useful.
