Hi
I sell a small line of Damascus Steel mostly accessories for pen turners like letter openers and key rings and the like but am working on Damascus pen kits as well. I didn’t join to sell so much as learn what people are making what they like or would like etc. I guess you could call it market research in a way but I am not that big of a company just a few little kits so far. I just like learning what people are making and how they do it

So we are working on two sizes of letter openers, knife/pen stands, keyrings, pizza cutters, stainless steel letter openers, and trying hard to develop some pen kits (I am trying to teach knifemakers to make pens)

What type of kit would you like to see? That is what I am really interested in what unique kit could we make from Damascus Steel for a turned handle or shaft?

This is the knife/pen stand (the post is for a turned shaft) and two sizes of letter openers
