Wow, when I saw the quote but not the image, I thought: "now why the hell would you buy a BK-18 and do THAT??"
But then I saw it.
Great job!

Stocking up on BK18s like stocking up on toilet paper lol

Making sure he can slice the corona virus before it reaches him. Good thinking...

Its all about the harpoon fin on the 18 which makes it so devastating for the corona virus.

Very much so. Ethan did good!

Just don’t mix the two up, that’d be problematic.

I think it got me already.

I was really not loving the sheath, lots of rattle, kinda noisy. I took out a couple newer blades (Skrama, Parangatang, 18) to work with my boys on fire making and after pounding the 18 through limbs on a downed tree, scraping pitchwood into fuzz and just a little general cutting, the knife locks in solid now with very little rattle or noise.
Something got broken in.
Harder on a baton than the 16 for sure but, I buy super cheap batons so no worry. I like it so far.

Used the 18 to dice up some potatoes for dinner. Its not like potatoes are going to give any knife much difficulty but it felt good. I feel comfortable going forward with using it for food prep.

Nice grind lines... Still Very aggressive looking.
In My head, I've been wondering about how I would do it.... I was thinking going Lower into a mini Seax look...… But I like what you did too.

I'm also wondering about grinding away the quillion? into a larger radius for the front index finger? idk, might look cleaner

The wrench knife just arrived

Handle isn’t as long as I anticipated but an impressive little blade nonetheless I like all the rounded edges

I can’t see em?

 

[1066vik]

I can’t see em?

Because they're not there, they're here!
And I haven't taken any pictures yet.

Amusing enough, the wrench knife is very similar to my modded 14.

That looks really good indeed.


I got my tan blade last night. Feels a little bit heavier in the hand than I expected, but it feels great and well balanced

All, that online knife shop has the best price I have ever seen for the bronze 18 today!
