[QUOTE="Lonecoyote, post: 504259, member: 4073"] You would be amazed how many " custom " made knives are manufactured by either a lathe ( computer programmed ) or CNC machine and sell for over $1,000.00, and there is a waiting list. Two knife manufacturers as an example:Grimsmo knives, all made on a CNC and you will not find one for under $600.00. For additional custom anodizing on titanium handle scales, pivot screws and pocket clip brings you over the $1,000.00 mark. Another company is Medford knives, most of their work is done by CNC machines. However they polish and sharpen the blades FREEHAND using a machine, which takes many years to be considered a skilled knife maker. BOTH COMPANIES MENTIONED USE THE HIGHEST QUALITY MATERIALS AVAILABLE. There is a waiting list for certain models of knives made by both companies. Both companies post many videos on YouTube. If you have time watch a few videos and you'll be amazed. I would consider it high priced assembly line knives that are made from the best materials on the market. So, I would venture to say if a CNC can accurately cut titanium steel it can surely cut/carve briar. [b]KEEP ON PUFFING!!![/b] [/QUOTE]
