I finally got around to doing the punch mod' on the RR sowbelly. It came out ok, not as nice as I hoped but it will still work. Next time I will keep the coffee to a minimum before I grind.

Looks really nice to me, I think you did a fine job! Looks factory.
Caffeine has spoiled a grind or two of mine, two
Being relaxed is key for me to do a job that impresses myself.

That is very kind of you to say, traumkommode. I didn't originally plan on the grind getting that close to the nail nick but I guess it could have been worse. Next time I will take a shot or three of whiskey instead a cup or three of coffee.
Now, that is a gooood lookin' knife!finally back from its modification process and right on time too!

After carrying my previously modified dogleg jack for several days, I decided I couldn't do without the straight-edged secondary, so off to the belt sander I went. Pen to coping, now it's done . . . really!

Good job Jeff! An improvement in utility.
Like it
Like it ! I did basically the same mod to a Case 63087 - I always feel lost without a straight edge of some kind ... so I took the spey blade to the disc sander and created a coping blade - just works for me.After carrying my previously modified dogleg jack for several days, I decided I couldn't do without the straight-edged secondary, so off to the belt sander I went.

If it were mine I would use JB Weld because it's what I have on hand and I've used it on other things with excellent results.
