Until Uncle E and the crew do the right thing:
(rendering shamelessly pilfered from dawsonbob)
in order to get a Becker-tough folder, I had to spend a bit more than Ka-Bar dough:
All I wanted was to give the rattlesnake mycarta the comfort of Ethan's finest.
Unfortunately, I got a little overzealous with the belt sander:
It actually feels great, even better than stock, but the awful fit will never do.
Fortunately there are folks - The Preacher, you know who you are - that do awesome work and save us from ourselves when we get carried away.
How badly did I fail?
It's my last piece of layered burlap, and I'm out of epoxy, so I think I'll stick with the professional CF for quite some time.
My Alox Farmer is due next week, so I won't be without a solid beckerhead-approved companion for my 16.
Thanks for looking.
