BK11 Content - I Tried to Leave It Alone..

Thanks Emperor...u gave me the nudge to try it as you can see by my thread, mine aint nowhere near as precise as yours but hopefully they're a step above ''helen keller'' LOL
 
The jimping is a little extreme for me (i mean depth wise). aesthetically, it does it though. pretty work.

Very very nice. Gotta be honest, almost all home jimping jobs look like Helen Keller did 'em. This is some real clean work. Gonna take down the edges so they don't tear up your thumb?

Thank for the nice comments BRL (i had my new glasses on when i did it lol) and its funny that you mention that..I just finished doing that, after I ran my finger across the jimping and realized it could be better. Used a file tho, I didn't wanna go dremel crazy!

Thanks. The jimping isn't as deep as it seems, I guess its the angle of the pic. Here's another pic (smoothed the jimping so i can keep the skin on my thumb where it belongs!)

Thanks DerekH and zuluninja.. Well thrillbilly did some jimping on the tip of his bk11 so I'll be back on my jimp job (yeah..that sounds perverted lol) later to do the same. I can see right now that I'm not gonna leave my bk2 alone :cool:
