Why not? Other than maybe for game processing, I'd think it could be a very capable 1-tool solution.

There's a nice BK2 setup on the exchange, btw. :D
 
It doesnt seen predisposed to versatility, also if you go around smacking the crap out of it, it'll eventually break at the seatbelt cutter.

Dodge Omni video was interesting, yea, but again, when it does finally give a little, is 1st to break right where one would expect it to.

I bet if there was a 2 vs Omni video the campanion would still be in one piece lol
 
I'd say CB has good reasons to trust that BK3. It's served him well as a great rescue tool.

That particular break resulted from prying on the door pin, not from cutting.
 
Ok first let me get this out there before you do, I have saved up quite a few

BK2s are more pre-disposed to field stripping Buicks

as for the BK3, there have only been a few/handful of documented breakings from extreme use. abuse doesn't count (and i know of one).
 
Good evening?

snark people

I feel bad hogging all the conversations but you guys are not SNARKING
 
Another good way to get knife blanks WW is to get your own Murph. Set him in the corner of the shop with a bandsaw, a stack of steel, and a cooler of beer. 8 hours later, you'll be out of beer, the kids will be crying, your wife will be mad, your toilet will be clogged and there will be one blank cut out! :D

The quality of work improves with the quality of beer. Unfortunately for you guys Todd's only been stocking Busch light for the last couple years.


Hmmmm... that's how it goes in my shop too, except I'm by myself and have to buy my own beer. Can I come work for you? :p

Find your own gig buddy.

Damn Todd that was cold! Murph prolly got his feelings hurt on that one. LMAO!!!

I did a little Google-fu on the manganese thing and was wondering; does the tungsten improve wear resistance and the manganese makes the steel less brittle? From the 5 minutes I spent on Wikipedia that's the impression I got.

Thanks for taking the time to learn me somethin' new. :)

Not sure what these "feelings" are, but the women complain they hurt. Maybe I'm too rough.

Uh...yeah, its a little more involved than that, but basically, higher maganese content equals higher tensile strenth.

And don't worry so much about Murph. His feelings would be hurt if I didn't give him sh!t. He'll be over tonight, I'll give him a smootch and say its from you! :D

Hold the tongue man, I swear you mistook me for Derek.


Tell him the Taint Squire still loves him.

That's a given, love returned.

As someone who daily fondles Todd's work, I can only encourage you to make it sooner rather than later!

I can't even comment with out getting banned. Todd's got a kiss for you, pretend you're Derek.

The two is one of those knives I'm not sure I really want. It might just be the meds talking but yeah. I keep seeing it and it doesn't look like something I want but it is something somewhere in my subconcious it keeps saying I need.

It's not to be handled by women that are pregnant or nursing, you'll be ok.
 
WW, I recommend Aldo (newjerseysteelbaron.com, which is a forum supporter), for your steel buying needs.

Have any of you heard from NJ steel baron recently? I e-mailed them a little over a week ago and haven't gotten a response. My first e-mail got a response within 24 hours but since then nothing.

Given their awesome reputation and the way they replied to my first message I know they're not messing around and I'm not trying to badmouth them here...
 
Man, I'd love to have a 3. And I will eventually get one, but I'd really dig a junior sized version of the 3. Like about the same OAL length and blade length as the 14 with the width at the handle being about the same as the 11, shorten up the serration area just a hair, 3/16 inch thickness. Of course, I'm not sure what to do about the scales, if any. Can anyone else picture this but me?

I was messing around and designed something similar but with an upswept tip and a skull crusher pommel...
 
Absolutely love Todd's work... Definitely on my "one day" list...

Same here. Those M9's give me tinglies in my downstairs.


'cause now you won't be forced to use only one blade ;)

Sounds like wondering into the woods blindfolded so I can get lost in order to practice my survival skills. It's not like someone put me in charge of keeping their bacon safe. The temptation to break out another blade won't be so great that I can't resist.


I was in the kitchen and decided to rip a big one with my oldest daughter behind me, who is 2 1/2. She loudly proclaimed daddy pooped! Then she tryst to check my butt for poop... That is all

:thumbup:

Keep in mind that on that omni it took two guys prying on it to break it. I hate chisel grinds though.


So I drove up the mountain and found the area I was looking for.

Looks like a nice place to spend a night.

I can picture it...because I have seen the laserlyte mini BK3. :D Maybe you should get one and make a cool handle.

Ooops, sorry. :o

Have any of you heard from NJ steel baron recently?

I haven't bothered to email them in years. Honestly, I seldom bother checking their website either, I just give 'em a call when I need something... there is almost always new and exciting stuff going on that they just haven't had time to post. Set aside 20 or 30 minutes though, if you get ahold of Aldo himself, he will talk your ear off :p.

In other news, I just tapered the taperedest tapered tang to ever grace a Growl. Dude asked me to balance it carefully and make it as light as possible... I haven't even ground the bevels yet and already the blank is trying to levitate off the bench. I may have to include some tie-downs and lead weights with it... this thing is gonna float right out of the client's hand if he's not careful... :D

Do I have to? I really don't have the mustache for it!

Wait, are we sure? I'd hate for it to be like that moose/kilt incident!

Boss has one in a box just like that...

This is true... That 3 has served me well.
