That strop reminds me of The Great Wall of China, probably visible from space too.
 
Small shop, busy, no problem.

They sent me an email the next day, telling me it would ship about 7 days ago.

I don't need them yet, but of course, you get excited for new gear.

I'm sure that they will be worth the wait.

Morning.
Cool pictures Truk...nice rifle and cool knives.

I being doing some "take care" in my knives, cleaning and treating so they don't rust. It really gets me angry to see rust stains in my knives. I don't care for use marks but rust, that's one thing that pisses me off.

Taking care of them is not a problem, they need to be taken care of, like any other tool. Clean and sharp, that's how they are supposed to be.

Have a good weekend ya'all.

Just curious, have any of you all had any problems with rust on a Horton? I carried a Necker in my back pocket for a long time, never rusted. Now I've replaced it with a Horton mini, so far it hasn't rusted. I'll be watchin it closer now, with summer comin. Lots of sweat,,, :eek:

I'll have to get me some Mineral Oil, JIC.

The one knife I had that rusted way too easily, was a Rat Hunter. Just packin it around in a Leather sheath, only a couple days and it started rusting. Turned me off of those.

The one thing Jeremy cannot do for us is alter the nature of the steel, itself. We're just going to have to live with that ... as he does, himself.:)

The only problem I've had with rusting/staining on a Horton was on a Chopper that I didn't clean the sap off for 2 weeks (just a couple .25" spots).:o After I cleaned it with soap and water, I hit it with some Flitz and all was good again. I just use a tiny amount of mineral oil. IMO, I could be wrong, but I also think it helps the inside of the sheaths too.

Kurt, that is where I got mine. He built one for me and one for Pauli, and told no mas. Spen told me it took an hour to load up each one. I would highly recommend one of the bench strops while you can get one. They make quick work of sharpening knives.
