The Knife Thread

Interesting, if it is true damascus steel then it is a bargain also with that sheath.

Very basic handle scales but you could swap them out and make up a nicer set.

No piece of damascus steel is the same and is usually very pricey, even for a premade knife blank that you can finish off.

Seller has a 100% feedback rating so it appears genuine.

The boss has said no so if any one is keen.

will those cannon fire threedogs?

@ Family that link doesn't say how many layers of Damascus, be wary
nah cannons don't fire, only shelf warmers

Anyone know what they coat plough discs' with ? Pitch???
Might make the frypan up then go to Tallarook for the night and throw it in the fire and burn any coating off.

@ OD where's your stone washed Tanto?

[threedogs]

Here's my frypan from hell,450mm wide, its only to slide on and off some coals so should work a treat.
after I burn the coating off it I'll "salt' the cooking surface and hopefully "blue it" at the same time
I'll also put some timber on the handle so its easier to handle.
I'll get it sand blasted this week that should work a treat.


tempted by this even if its made in china, nice size for sticking

@ OD is your [Kallens] sheath like this ??

[oncedisturbed]

Nope, still no knife in the mail yet.
Just have the crappy nylon sheathes on the vanguards.

Thats is a big pan

[threedogs]

once blasted it should look heaps better.

waiting on some knives to arrive myself some from Aust most from OS

I googled plough disc frypan seems I'm the only one in the world with one yoo hooo

also my 12" aluminium camp oven worked a treat cooking the vegies while Bob cooked the roast in the other camp oven [NCOT]
was a bit worried the handle might melt off but it didn't, easy as to clean also

[oncedisturbed]

New knife came in the mail today.
Wow, top knife and super sharp. Downside is the crappy sheath but can fix easy enough

[threedogs]

was it the tanto stone washed ??

seems that small axe I brought a few weeks ago is a throwing axe, go figure

[oncedisturbed]

Yup it was the stonewash tanto. I think it just that seller that has listed it as a throwing axe, I dont think ER class it as a thrower but could be wrong.

I have started making a template for an axe head sheath which will fit my saw in axe handle combo like the gerber set as they made all their sheathes left hand carry. Will start that once I finish off my own and your vanguatf sheathes.
