CARBIDE.COM is the e-commerce division of California Carbide Inc., a full-service sawshop in Ventura California, founded in 1986.  We are tooling specialists, providing grinding services and tooling to over 700 commercial woodshops, as well as thousands of artisans and craftsmen in California and across the U.S.   We sharpen and repair tooling, and we also design and build custom sawblades, shaper and moulder knives, router bits, drills and boring tools. The online store carries the same product lines that we have come to rely on in our California shops: Amana, Everlast, Freud, Onsrud, Freeborn, FS Tool, Her-saf, LRH, Tenryu, Velepec, and other quality brands. They are names chosen for high quality, and for the overall value they offer to the professional woodworker and serious craftsman. We are a stocking distributor for these lines, and we inventory most of the items we sell, normally shipping merchandise within 24 hours of receiving an order. We try hard to make our site worthy of your business, so we are very interested in hearing your observations and suggestions. Please let us know what you think of how we're doing.  Drop us a line at straightalk@carbide.com.   If you're looking for tooling that we have not yet managed to make available online, please let us know; we have been doing phone-in business for years from our "brick-and-mortar" shops, where we carry a complete inventory of top-name woodshop tooling.  Give us a call, toll-free line, at 888-701-9278, or email us at at our Ventura shop.   sales@carbide.com.
