Testing my pic uploading - MTech Trail MAster knockoff

[Blackie Scantling]

Oh wow...it worked.
So, here is the CS TM knockoff after it was stripped and I did some re shaping of the blade, adding a slight recurve, lengthening the choil, dropping the point slightly to give it a more old time look. As you can see there's a pen line above the edge where I was going to acid wash and create a fake hamon.
I grew fond of this Chinese knife, only problem was the blade came badly warped, the guard rattled and the blade grind wasn't centered.

MTECH has sent a replacement which should be here tomorrow. They were very fast on the turnaround. If it arrives sans the issues of the one in the pic I will be more than happy.

Put the pics you want people to see in separate album the one's you don't lock.

LOL!

Good job on the knife, by the way. Have you been modding your own blades for a while?

Thanks, actually it was my second. I needed to finish it on a belt sander but I thought whats the point if I'm returning it.
