I'm Super glad it made it there safe.... I'm glad it's not rusty...Ha!
*I oiled it up pretty heavy, but I wasn't sure if it was waiting for you inside or out?

It was A lot of Fun to make, the thought of doing That design just came to me in a whim, but I think it will be very funtional.

Edited because I was replying to Crag on pm and this thread same time, didn't want to post my details here, but suffice to say people think public employees get free Healthcare and nothing can be farther from truth... .

Oh, and they also had the balls to send me a $125 bill for a employer mandated Covid test.

Not a pity party, just frustrated and I really hope that the new administration coming into Washington kicks the shit out of the current structure of a lot of the scams we all pay for

THANKS TO YOU all for the support though...

I am in a hole right now with money, so I would not want to take on the project immediately.

Long story short, as a teacher I pay $23,000 per year for health insurance and my employer pays the other half. Despite that level of family coverage I got a bill for a $7600.00 ambulance ride when the blood pressure meds my doc prescribed almost killed me. This med called captopril is derived from pit viper venom, and I have a sensitivity to it because as a kid and into my 20's I worked with venemous reptiles and got nailed a few times.

Idk what the answer is (rare for Me)....?
But our health care/insurance in America is Shit!

I have health insurance from my employer at work.... We also pay Alot. The employer pays Alot..... I Can't afford to go to the Doctor. It's Crazy.... I Hate them. I refer to our healthcare as Ostrich Care...... We bury our heads in the sand, and ignore

*Sorry, off topic.

It's That time of the year again.....our Second Annual Thanks Giving......

Last year we announced the winner on Thanksgiving. This year I'd like You to have it by then.....(Hopefully)



As always, I'm a little behind....but I've got it started, I'll maybe post some updated pictures in the days ahead? ....Maybe. haha.

This year I'm calling the knife "Food Truck".
As you can imagine, it's a kitchen/food based design..... Actually, it's My version of Tops fish/frog market knife. I've never seen, held, or used That knife...it's Not a copy....just That style.

Mine is going to be made from Very Hard 8670.
64HRC. My current kitchen knife is made with this steel and heat treatment, and I'm constantly impressed with how the edge behaves, and it's definitely not babied....not in our house.

It Can and Will rust ... I think the Blotchy look will be nice with these scales....

We are using Maple Valley Richtite for handle scales, with black vulcanized liners, and probably some stainless hardware of sorts, idk yet?
I think it will look nice, but utilitarian.

I also think This knife will become your favorite.

Please see the Rules below, and I may add more.
