I had bought a load of kit knife parts n pieces a ways back,from Germany. This hidden tang,half tang is one blade of 3 I bought. My first attempt. I epoxied it on to the Sambar tip with Devcon 2 ton full cure. Sitting on my desk,un sharpened,a letter opener I never use. But I'd pick it up occassionally & yank on the blade to see if I could get some kindof movement/failure out of it & its on there pretty good.
Recently I got some knives back with sheaths made & wound up with this spare of heavy leather. This morning I tried it & guess what,it fits the knife like a glove,no belt loop.
So the knife needs to be sharpened & perhaps you would like to attempt to drill through it for a lanyard hole >? It is German 440C,blade was etched & I hand buffed most the etch off.
I would not use this as a pry bar but I think it'd serve someone as a nice small knife
Post up some cool pics & enter if you'd like. Somehow I'll figure a winner,next Sunday sound good ?
