Knife Handle Shields and Templates

Post by Jeffinn »

I came across this company website while looking for something else and it got my attention. Has anyone here heard of or dealt with this company before?

No, I have not seen them until now. They have a lot of interesting stuff. The only thing is minimum shield order is 25 @$2 each.

The link speaks of "shields and plates". Shields being $2 and plates being $15. What are they referring to, when they say "plate"?

The “plate” is the steel template with the cutout in it to help you cut the right size shield relief in the knife handle.
