That is insane
might get one just for the heck of it
My tanto bowie arrived today... My new favorite knife! The sheath is not too bad but has Chinese writting on it so am getting OD to make me a new one.

Saw that tanto was very tempted, looks the goods for sureQuote:

They don't show that in their photos, but still a very nice knife.
Late edit.... the sheath for the Damascus skinner is shite as well, the thread they use is way too weak.
They should be using 80lb Dyneema braid at least IMO.
another to send over,maybe or just redesign a new sheath, with a hip clip to hold it in place
Bought another two folders both with bone scales
one is a twin blade trapper style the other is a smaller Schrade bear cub/claw
At least I start on my cabinet tomorrow.
Also want to buy that huge Civil War trapper too
Got a bid on this USA Schrade Scrimshaw bear cub folder,
same size as a Buck 110.
tried that sharpening system on my buck110 and the Damascus skinner
I just matched the factory angle as best I could and went from there.
It would work better if you had water dripping on it IMO.
Could not get it sharp enough to shave, so I think its just a waste at this stage.
I'll draw up what I do to the edge and see what you think, I only do a few knives this way not all
but they end up razor sharp and you can shave with them very easily.
That is nice indeed. Waiting on some to be delivered and bidding on the same piece as Gecko's new knife, it is a monster
cant wait,to see
@ OD with those sheaths what is on the edge on one is it burnt?
some how I have 7 knives I'm waiting on plus I brought 3 thumb studs for $18 in aust
should never be left alone with the laptop.
we have hard rubbish ATM guy across the road threw out some pine floor boards, plus what
I have is enough to build my cabinet.
Reminder to all that carpentry is not my strong suit, but after the rustic look so should be ok
Some will be edging dye and the other a clear burnish.
My Black Buck Vanguard arrived , I like the feel of these knives, nice grip and a bit of weight as well.
Also while browsing Ebay I came across a return spring for my Pedestal Drill for a few $$$.
Still have 6 more knives to come, need that cabinet badly.
I'll put some pics up later
