Camp Tramp - My Way

Thanks for the clarification.

Judging from your photos, the dents you talk about are so small you can't see them with the naked eye? Is that correct?

Thanks for sharing.

Yes, it's correct.

The Aluminum oxide shape is free form and it has a lot of angleฝcorners on the particle where as the Glass bead is perfect rounded shape.

Imagine when you look into the round cooking pan, if the pan is uncoated you see all the light reflect out of the pan nicely.
When you look into the surface of finishing out of Frre Form Media , it angle deep down and do not deem to have effective reflection then the light that reflect to your eyes are less and therefor it is darkish.

Hope this help some idea.:)
 
Dear all Rats,

FYI, Dick lives in Thailand. And he's a super great friend of mine. ;)

Todate his expertise in re-handle a knife and re-finish the blade is second to none, IMHO. :D
 
Dick,

Do you have any pictures of your work on a Howling Rat? I'm very curious how it would look.

And I agree with Ghibli...you are the man! :thumbup: :D
 
Dick, That's a great job of modification!!! Very nice fit 'n finish from what I can see. Congrats on a job done well! :):thumbup:

I will put a link to this thread in The Toolshed forum here on BFC. The Toolshed is dedicated to sharpening and modifications folks have done to their knives. This major overhaul of the CT richly deserves to be included in the corpus of knife modding IMHO.

Dick-

Good Grief you are talented!!! Your knives look awesome and your pictures are great too. Do you do this for personal fun only or have you marketed your expertise and skill? Any effects on the Tempering?

You are the Man! :thumbup: :cool:

you are depreciating the knife, unfortunately. So no problem though. I'll give you full retail value for it so you loose nothing.:thumbup:

Just the kind of guy I am:thumbup:


I agree, but even though it is so terribly deppreciated, I LOv... I mean I think it is decent and since I am being in such a generous mood and getting into the whole holiday spirit thing, I will even pay $25 more than full retail.

.....

If not, can I be your friend!!!! :D
 
That is so fuggin nice!!! I have come back 3 times now just to look her over.

Prime example of what can be done to an already badass CT!

Awesome work.
