The Les George Knives Thread

Does Tom do a liner with his G10 or is the washer riding on the G10? Any noticeable difference in action in comparison to a classic full Ti LG?

No liner, just the g10. I would love to do some in wood but he won’t use wood without a liner.

The action on this one feels the same as with the ti scale but still needs to break in. On the other two, it may sound crazy but the action is slightly better after breaking in. One in particular is considerably better.

I don't know what sort of sorcery Les uses to make those MK3s as smooth as they are, but it's impressive. That one is a beauty!

Gracias, she loves a good compliment. Waiting on a PG Precision Monster Disc for it. Polished copper, plan to do some forced patina testing on the little guy. See if I can get blue, green and copper on such a little piece.

I was avoiding washers before this one. Now I have another washer knife landing today. We'll see If the Japanese washer job can hang with the LG sorcery. :)

Man, this is my first pure LG. Other three are D7's. This one has not only made me a believer in what's possible with washers, but it just won't seem leave my pocket. :)

Such a great knife. Always awesome to see someone find out what an LG is all about! Welcome to the club, next a vecp then a talos and eventually 10 of each!

Well, just to clarify, he was speaking more generally, as in a full Costom.

I landed on the Secario part after seeing his. That knife dances through my minds eye, every night as I slip into dreamland. lmao

Here is another dance partner for your nocturnal musings:

I think the Sicario is Les's most unique custom and by far the sliciest knife he makes. I hope you land one, man! They're killer.

That is breathtaking, It's official, I'll never sleep again. 🤣

Fun fact. My Dad has an extremely rare gene that allows him to function optimally on 4-4 5 hours of sleep. 10pm - 2am, every day of his life.

I got insomnia, everyday of my life. Somebody in upper management of this old world has jokes sometimes. lol

I went through a bout in my late 30's -40s..... Just couldn't get my brain to shut off.
* I could fall asleep easy, but I'd wake up in the middle of the night. Thinking of a million things.

I found on Amazon, Double strength Benidyrall type pills.
You Have to take them ahead of time, cause they will Knock you out for about 10 hours.....no getting up.
Storms, fire, sex....nope. You are OUT.
Nonaddicting.
I did that for a few years. Broke the cycle.

Les helped me prep a mojo style pork butt for the smoker! Stuffed with orange slices and mint. I added some spam for good measure 😀
