Hey TW! Let's see your knives!

Just some knives I have laying around

 

I must know more about the sebenza with the textured scales!

 

Just a large custom sebenza with custom ti scales
I'll post a better pic of that one for you when I get home from work

 

Where did you get the scale? I like it a lot

 

It's not the entire collection by any means, but it's the ones that matter.

 

Sorry, didn't get a chance to shoot more photos, but it's a kingdom armory custom.

I love my ESEE 4. I got the OD with Orange G10 Scales. I figured if I drop it out in the woods it'd be nice for it to stand out like a sore thumb.

 

Started to get a little creative with the file and torch on my CRKT and my permanent match

 

Here is a close up of the kingdom armory CRK scale from my insta feed.

Go big or go home right?

I gotta make some of this cost back- what would you pay to have me put a razor edge on your knife and scissors? I figure if I sharpen a couple hundred knives I'll be close to break even haha

 

Haha.

I'm looking hard at the Survive GSO 4.1 knife. I want to try a 3V steel.

 

If anyone is interested, I have this posted up for sale.

Very nice knife

 

I carry this bad boy every day at work...

 

Back in the day, I could precisely tray cut any box of cardboard you could throw at me. My box cutter and I were like 1.

 

haha..my first real bloody cut was from one of those. i was switching the blade out and when i pulled it out of the flatten tube section..whoosh..a gusher!! i was a tiny kid. i was helping my dad at his grocery store..he gave me one. i remember it was a free promotional thing from the supplier. my dad quickly made that thing disappear before my mom put 2 and 2 together. hah.

my parents should have learned how to do stitches..

 

Just picked up a little something to stay in the truck

 

Can't go wrong with a Kukri. One of my favorite tools to carry. I have the smaller KaBar model, and made a Kydex sheath for it (I don't care for most belt loop sheaths)

 

That looks awesome! I need to learn kydex. I want one for my opinel so I can carry it blade open and my homemade knives

 

Pretty good vids on the internets about how to make a cheap and easy press, and how the process works. First, wrap a layer of masking tape clean and tight around your blade (for spacing so the kydex isn't too tight on the blade itself). Then, I just use a heat gun to heat up the sheets in a jig I made -basically take the two halves and make a "tent" out of them and let the heat gun just blow hot air inside the tent to evenly warm them both up. Wait a couple minutes until both sheets are evenly heated and very rubbery. Have the press ready with the high density foam in it. Lay the one half sheet of kydex quickly on the bottom of the press, place the knife in correctly, and place the other half on top and close/clamp the press. Let it cool for a good 10 minutes. Watch some vids and get the right grommets and die setter. Take the sheath out, mark where your grommets will go, and put one in each side to hold it all together. Once your grommets are all in and set, then I just use a belt sander to grind the edges clean to shape it. Work on a smaller knife first for practice. Different thicknesses of Kydex yield different results. Try .060 for medium sized knives, .020 for very small neck-style knives, and .080 for large knives.
