The Knife Thread

[threedogs]

Sweeeeet see what you mean now by nearly ticking all the boxes.
You could dig with that one.
Added another to my cast iron knives one more to come as well.
These are seriously sharp , sushimi sharp IMO
just need to keep oil on the blade to prevent any rust

Late edit:: YEAH my Buck 110 folder has returned from the Stated.
Wow it's brand new again and it cost be nothing except $20 to post it over.
It still retains the 25th blade, boom baby boom very happy

EDIT:: Customs did their bit and opened the box from Buck Inc, what are they expecting to find
a free gift for themselves. "A" holes., that Buck tactical never turned up

I forgot I picked up this bad boy on Tuesday from Anaconda. $30 down from $100.

Sheath is reasonable and is MOLLE compatible as well which is a bonus. It is a very thick and stable, full tang blade with 50/50 fine and serrated edge blade with a glass breaker (where lanyard is) on the pommel.

Came with a basic diamond grit sharpener and has enough room in the sharpener pouch for the sharpener, flint rod with striker and my Buck Bantum Stealth.

Gecko would like this knife as it is very practical and currently without a hefty price tag.

and a Fiskar axe X17, which is 23" I think already have a Fiskar X25 27" and X7 14"
found a mob with very cheap post[reasonable]
Just for around camp, to tidy up logs etc

Stupid you can buy them cheaper from overseas delivered
to your door than you can from Bunnings or any other hardware

I like the X series axes, looking at getting the X10, their smallest version for my pack but not paying the $70+ some stores are selling them for

[threedogs]

check the Gerber range exactely the same, I think you can get very cheap on Amazon

last one looks affordable, prices range from $35 to $95 go figure

Will do, the X5 is the 1 I am keeping my eye on as it is the smallest and lightest

Father in-law has the perfect bench top knife maker..

[threedogs]

@ Kallen they are great for a lot of knife making jobs, could spin a bit faster though,
that's why I bolted a linisher to an eight inch bench grinder. been too crook to do anything lately.
Yeah very handy bit of kit.
Waiting on this bad boy now 16.5" OA

[BigRAWesty]

Yea it is a little slow, but keeps the heat out and more controllable lol..

It flips up to.. One thing at a time..

Was just thinking that that knife would make a great addition....

I also want to get one of the Gerber axes with the saw in the handle.... What size are they 3D? 22in?
