romanum Knife Enthusiast Registered: 11/29/14 Posts: 49	Funny to me we use this stuff for everything. Need something firm to use as anvil? Tool handle wore out and broke, just make handle. See so much would never consider Randall with same. We call it phenolic. Read thread and can see why no longer made. Guy cutting may as well be doing asbestos and we warned vapours from too hot grind cause siezure of heart stop. _________________________ Roberto Vilchensio Romanum to pals
