I have made 5 so far, my Dad has one and I have another ready for pics! It's a leaf shaped blade with harpoon/clip!
Daniel- Black goes well with Red.
Good call! I like the plan
That looks really good!!
That means the most!

Thanks! Gotta take care of family!
Thanks Gooeytek! Seeing those lines come together is one of my favorite parts. I used to cut stones and it is always a good feeling to see everything line up!

I'm grinding folders with one hand while I type this.
That sounds really cool by the way... I should send some frames out for black DLC coating.

I might try, I need an arbor & copper wheel... have brushed some knives a ways back to orange peel finish and I'm not sure if I want to again! sketchy! ...maybe I can figure out a good way though.

I can't wait for you to get it!
random info - I ship the knives with one drop of nano oil on the pivot; in my opinion that is all they really need until the PB washers fully break in. You can add a drop of oil to the detent race if you want to... oil makes them crazy smooth but slows down break in time... which they really don't need as I cycle the lock hundreds of times so you don't have to! This is just some info... I ship them smooth and ready to work.

Good advice, thanks. By coincidence, I just bought some nano oil for a knife from another knifemaker I recently got. He shipped it without ANY lube. Didn't tell me until I wrote and asked, "what's wrong with this knife ? It barely opens and sounds like fingernails on a chalkboard." I know I won't have that nonsense with a Fairly knife.
