You got me there, but I already used up my "mind blown" pic...

Hi everyone. First post. Been here a few times over the years via google search for help and info but I’m getting serious about making knives so I figured it was time to join. I have been making file knives for a few months and am just ready to rock and roll on this new venture. Thanks!

Welcome, and you may want to check out the knifemakers forum they'll be able to steer you in the right direction on everything knife making to make some fine blades.

Seriously, though, greetings and welcome to the forum!

Hello everyone,

New here. Been collecting for maybe a little over a year at this point. I gravitate towards folders... as given my office job and the oh-so-evil packages and boxes, I can use them

My humble collection:

Left to right:

- Benchmade Osborne 940
- Kizer Sheepdog XL
- Gerber US-ASSIST
- AKC F16 OTF
- Deejo 37G
- CRKT Pilar
- Gerber Keynote

- ice

Thanks for the welcome

Hmm... let me try another hosting site.

Could you recommend a better way to post pics?

Just bought my first knife. Thought about getting a pocket knife and didn't realize all the different things that go into it. Spent two weeks looking around trying to figure out what one to buy.

I think I might have found something fun to collect by accident.

I too, am curious to know what knife Bif chose. My first knife was a SOG Vulcan.

I have been a recent member for several days now and have learned a said amount. While not new to knives, but new to the hobby. Since this past Friday I have already purchased 3 pocket knives and ordered a 4th, that years ago I could not afford or justify. I never had a really great pocket knife. Now I will have 4. Not really looking at collector pieces but rather usable knives. All say is I am having the wow factor.

So thank y’all for building a great place for a layman like myself to gain knowledge.

Regards,

Joe

A usable knife is a must. Welcome to the community Joe!

Hello all! I am interested in having a Knife reproduced from Photos. The German 1918 Trench knife.
I am Having a "Prop Knife kit" created and I want to be as historically correct when Creating mold for Rubber and retractable (to simulate stabbing).
The Reproduction suppliers have 3 and I am not sure how Historically acurate they are til I have them in hand.

Welcome to Bladeforums Michael.

Wow, your request is a real head scratcher. I don't know of any subforum here at Bladeforums to direct you to have a rubber or retractable prop knife made. If you wanted an actual, real 1918 trench knife made that would probably be a lot easier than having a prop made. In the 18+ years I've been here I don't recall ever seeing a member who makes such props, but that doesn't mean there aren't any.

My best suggestion would be to start a new thread here in General Discussion and ask the community at large if they know of anyone or any business that makes prop knives.

To start a new thread simply click on the blue button that says "Post New Thread" near the top, right-hand side of the screen on the front page of the General Discussion subforum, then enter a thread title, then type in your request.

Best of luck in your search.

Hey noobs, don’t be like R RancherinAz . Bringing back threads from 2008-2010 is frowned upon. Bringing back 9 of these threads within 30 minutes or so in the same forum is ridiculous!
