Thread: Hello I'm new and need help

The main reason I've been thinking stainless is rust concerns... I live in a very dry climate though... there in lies another question? now i feel like the village dunce. If carbon is the way to go how do we feel about the Thiers-Issard "Super Gnome"? And where could i buy it pre honed so its ready to use? Thanks again!
