Mods, Regrinds, Cerakote, and Sharpening

REK Knives · Apr 2, 2015

Finished this up today! And no, I did not do the Ano job on this it was done by Zeta33 (great job bud!) I just stonewashed it a bit after. The blade on this was reground (matching the hollow grind), etched, and stonewashed.

+1 Josh is a great guy to deal with a true professional. I sent 2 of my knives to Razors Edge, the first one was an Emerson Mach1 with serrations i had Josh remove serrations and add a subtle swedge. It came out awesome, it now has an EKI Commander recurve style blade and he finished up this project with acid etch and stonewash with hand rubbed satin flats, and of course it is hair popping sharp! The second knife was a Mulller linerlock, with a detent travel issue again Josh knocked it out of the park with his keen eye and skill, and finished up with a fresh edge. Buttery smooth, shaving sharp and perfectly centered. I would say Josh is beyond efficient with the Wicked Edge sharpening system, if you dont believe me check out his WE tutorial on youtube. I actually keep it accessible when i am using my WE, he basically re-wrote the "owners manual" making every aspect of this platform clear to the lay person. Great communication with immediate responses and a fast turn around. I highly recommend Josh at Razor's Edge, you will not be disappointed. Last but most certainly not least he is a USMC veteran! Semper Fidelis and keep up the good work....

Just wanted to echo what's already been said. -Josh is a pleasure to deal with personally, and his work is quality. If you're considering using his service, quite wastin time and get those knives in the mail.

I'm the proud owner of this 21 and could not be happier. It is scary sharp. Between the stonewash and etching, the ano job from Harris, and Josh doing his amazing work on the regrind and edge, I have a work of art. These pictures do not give this Sebenza justice.
Do not hesitate to send Josh your knives.

Here's one I finished up the other day... blackwashed the blade, gave the Ti slab a two tone ano/wash and finished the edge up on the Wicked Edge. This thing really stands out above the crowd now!

Converted this ZT0550 into a dual grind - hollow on the main edge, spanto/flat at the tip!

Strider GB tanto, special TNK framelock... only 100 of these made. I refinished the blade (stonewashed) then mirrored the edge matching existing angles.

Got this back today! Josh did a phenomenal job on it. Regrind, sharpening, and cerakote.

REK Knives · Apr 21, 2015

Glad you liked it Jed! That color combo is really fabulous... and the blacked out spacers/lanyard tube just makes it that much sweeter!

REK Knives · Apr 22, 2015

More work done recently! I apologize for those of you that have had to wait on turn around times... been swamped but am taking these on full force and full time =) Thanks for looking!

First up, a Becker BK2 on which I added jimping then cerakoted (these pics are after a little use):

Next, Emerson CQC-7 - cerakoted blade and pocked clip black:

And here we have a Graham SS3 Razel flipper on which I fixed lock rock, anodized the scales a two tone (blue/bronze) color, and gave it a regrind.

Blade, Before:

And after:

Next we have a Gerber Mark II with a thick edge that needed fixing. I also re-profiled the serrations to actually be effective.

Before:

And After:

And finally, a few scandi's... these were done on a belt sander but are still very time consuming due to the consistency needed on the progression up through the belts. to be clear, these are not mirror edges, just highly polished:

Really looking forward to seeing how those Bradshaws turned out.
