Glennbad is a baaaad man

Thanks everyone!


Here's something I made on a whim. Just shows the things that can be done with the TL-29 screwdriver blade. I'd like to think of it as a Franken-Eureka. Gonna put an edge on it and carry it for awhile.




 
Here's a picture of the 2 sisters together. Violet is older and not quite as pretty, but well-traveled. Marigold is younger, and a little prettier.

I sent Glenn an old cheap Imperial Delrin Barlow and a Delrin Western Boulder and asked him to re-cover them and fix them up for me. He re-covered the Western Boulder in ebony and the Barlow with some awesome bone he had laying around. He then added some solid nickel silver bolsters and I heard a whimper from him, just before Christmas. He wanted to know if I liked threaded bolsters. I replied that I love threaded bolsters.

He suggested that I Primbleize the blades on the Imperial in his return letter. I did not need to read that twice and commenced to rubbing on the blades for a bit, adding some vinegar to the mix, then a little more rubbing.

I am very pleased with this pair, as I was very pleased by the other work Glenn performed for me. He is da man. ;):)

MY internet access has been quite sporadic for the past couple of weeks, but when I have a connection, I've been trying to catch up a little on traditional sub forum goings-on. And, even though I'm a little late on this, I can't help but say:

HOLY TOLEDO, Glenn!! That's awesome work :thumbup::thumbup::thumbup:
Congrats, Primble, on your gorgeous new knives! As others have noted, that Imperial barlow is just stunning!
(Have you ever posted details of Primbleizing a blade? Your blades always look so uniform and elegant!!)

BTW Glenn, that little Western you did for Primble was very kindly gifted to me by Rob. I like it a lot. :D :thumbup:
 
Glad to hear my work is enjoyed!
 
Excellent work on all Glenn! Really like that lockback Case you did in stag! That's the way that Case should've been done originally.
 
:thumbup: On the case stag lock-back. Doesn't get any nicer than that. Terrific work!

I agree, that stag looks like a totally great fit with this pattern. The only thing I didn't like was the super thin bolsters.
