The Knife Thread

[oncedisturbed]

I am trying to find somewhere that sells the blank belt lengths cheaply, most places I have access to are around $45 a pop and that is without buckle, length holes or finishing

If I can find decent sheets of leather cheap enough, it will make it cheaper cutting them all from a sheet, pain the ar$e but cheaper

It appears almost identical to my Tactical branded knife without the crappy teeth they put in. If it is as good as the other then I will be happy Sent from my iPhone using Motorculture mobile app

Maybe thats why i'm thinking its missing something, the makeshift saw blades on the top of the knife. Like i said still looks nice tho!!

@ Alitis you need one of these I sprayed my scales to turn it into a "Bumble bee" lol http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/271468818...84.m1423.l2649

Lol do i really need it ?? I'll put it onto my watch list which is becoming a shopping list the more i go on haha. The yellow handle looks way better than the digital camo, great color choice

I only use a cotton buff on my 8" grinder, Once polished if you wish to display them with no repolishing a good clear lacquer with keep the polish nice and bright, I have 6 fire nozzles up to 450,, tall when polished I'll clear powder coat them. All my brass mortar and pestle I leave as they are antique and require patina. I grab a pic of the steam engine header tank from 1850, that will look awesome finished About 800 tall by 450 round, here it is I love this thing, rivets and lead joints Split PVC around the base of the clothes lines is to stop the Male dogs urine rusting the base off, very strong stuff

I have these for my bench grinder

They work a treat, just wear a face shield or you'll cop a face full of wax haha. I've missed placed them but when i find them i'll see how the go on a couple of old fishing knifes i've got and see how they buff out the scratches.

What are you going to turn the tank into ??? I got give a block from a 350 chev with a bent rod and a hole in the side of it the size of a grape fruit i want to clean up and turn into a coffee table. You call you back yard man land lol my workshop is man land haha theres a few v8 laying about, a few unfinished resto's plus i have a half restored 1969 Mc Culloch super 10 10 chainsaw. I was given to me with a stuffed coil so i repaired it but the carby is stuffed so to make it run i need to adjust the mixtures while i start it the make it either run flat out idle lol

Have a look at a multi use knife on fleabay called the "fox trakker" -(not the Israli version) - I want me 1 if them, friggen awesome for everything in 1 knife downside is cost but it would last my lifetime and then some.

Top reviews on it from US military as well

@ Alitis not sure on the tank but polished up it would look great on a rod. Not the wax in the face but the little bits of cotton on you eye lashes that shites me. The yellow it only Galmet spray can,
@ OD what about sourcing leather for either India or Pakistan, seems to me to price might be right
@ GKO i'll try and find a link to your FOX-Trakker, far out they are a pricey knife indeed can only find tactical
which OD would like

So many reasons not to like that Fox Trakka but I have to say that I like it!
