Got this back in 2010 and immediately tortured it, batoned, split wood, used as a can opener for those pesky ones without tabs. Never sharpened it and retired it to just opening packages. The thumb opener was super loose and rattled from the batoning and splitting wood, finish was was no existent on most of the blade and it just looked pathetic sitting in my toolbox. Was the first knife I bought and wanted to bring some glory back to it.

Stripped and cerakoted air dry. Blade and metal hardware in burnt bronze and handle in titanium. First time cerakoting a knife so besides a few runs and bubbles I think I did okay and now he's back with some style.

*edit* if you have have to find another screw for the thumb opener good luck. Man I think it was a gift from heaven how I found one in my bag of tricks lol*edit*



and a shot with the brothers

 
Well that looks pretty cool. I never had a hankering for an Ak-47, but now I sorta do.
 
Just picked-up one today, they rock! Very tough, yet light and easy to pack along.

I have had an AK 47 knife for several years. It is my go to folder for hiking, biking, fishing, etc.
