zuludog Report post Posted February 7, 2019 (edited) I've just had a look at this supplier https://www.gandmtools.co.uk They have various new old stock knives and other items, mostly by George Barnsley, a traditional Sheffield tool maker who ceased trading several years ago They include 'half moon knife' for £25 plus VAT - well worth buying Edited February 7, 2019 by zuludog Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

YinTx Report post Posted February 7, 2019 I've been looking on that site for almost a year waiting for the half moon knife to show up, finally gave up. Now I have 4 other knives (Rose, Blanchard, Clyde) so its a bit of a stretch to think I need another! YinTx Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
zuludog Report post Posted February 7, 2019 I'm in a similar position. I have about half a dozen leatherworking knives, including a home made Japanese style knife, but no round knife. A few months ago I bought a George Barnsley head, or half - round knife for £20, and I'm still getting used to it The half moon knife would be a good buy, but you have to draw the line somewhere, so I won't be getting it; but I thought I'd post it on here for anyone who's thinking about getting one The head knife was in good condition, but like many traditional makers, there is only a basic sharp edge; you must do a lot of the final sharpening & polishing yourself Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
