Clip point OC Settler that I reprofiled, sharpened and cleaned for use this morning.
Main blade had a long flat spot at the ‘belly’. Almost as deep as the original bevel. Been meaning to prep this one for a while, since I got a nice one for the collection some time ago. Checked my hand sharpening angles with a sharpie test. Good to go. Chops and push cuts paper quietly.

Hey Mitch, I don't think our American friends would know the handle of your stick was once a classic Australian flower from the banksia tree.
One of my favourites. Nice knife too

After a while I noticed I just don't reach for the little Classic when I need to use something for cutting - just a bit too small and fumbly for my fingers. So... back to the Cadet. Some of my pocket stuff for September, outside of holiday and pending seasonal change.

The red cadet is looking good mate, it's showing some pocket wearAfter a while I noticed I just don't reach for the little Classic when I need to use something for cutting - just a bit too small and fumbly for my fingers.

Thanks - it is, and maybe a bit from sometimes using it as a worry stone. Not sure how much/ if that affects the finish.

I didn’t realize just how thin an Alox Bantam was going to be until I opened the new box that arrived in the mail today. I’ve had and appreciated a Soldier since 2007, but this is a very different beast.
This will take some evaluation.

I'm assuming this is a solo mate, I was wondering if your blade sits centre or slightly to one side as if it was a two layer.
