How are you liking the GB 2.0?

 

[Lorien]

it's a good knife. It's built really well, and I'm glad to have it, (thanks @fonedork!)
I do have a few complaints, all but one of which would be fairly easy to address- like most production knives

My wife somehow managed to snag one of these and surprised me with it last night. Carried it today and I love it! It’s a beast of a blade if you’re used to the pm2 with the ffg blade. I only was able to use it for a box that was delivered at lunch time. I would recommend this one for anyone who likes good work knives, tantos, or knives in general lol.

My exact words the other day were "Oh man...you should do some crazy ass Kris blade that only a CNC could pull off" and @Nathan the Machinist didn't disagree so I'm holding out hope (and dibs on one).

Shiny Saturday

Tell me about the Tain

Tell me about the Tain

Not a ton to say, other than it's a great light with spots for crapload of tritium It's about the smallest clicky 123 size light that I've found and the titanium construction has held up to being run over in a u-haul parking lot

The knife is cool...but I wanna know more about the lamp(?) behind it

WValtakis - Thanks! That's a little casting project my daughter and I did last year. It's actually my workbench stand for the iPad.

Bunch of miscellaneous hardware from around the shop plus a Leatherman, the old Ecozilla I wore for 8 years and a Cold Steel folder hidden in the back. It was the first casting project I ever did and knowing what I know now I would have staged the watch a little better because it got buried.

This was a very cold shot but I think it was worth it.

man, that would drive me nuts! Needing JUST that size washer, nut or bolt- nowhere to be found anywhere in the shop... except in the resin

That is so cool. Is there a youtube instruction video on how to make stuff like that with that resin?

It’s a tragedy they don’t make the old Wenger 120mm models anymore. They are a great, compact way to carry a good 4” saw. I have the 2 and 3-layer versions.

Thanks! I'm not sure but I bet there is. Just search resin casting or something to that effect. I have been using 2 part resin forever and had the general idea. I just researched the type of plastic to use as a container and ended up using polyethylene, it worked well but I wish I'd have used a release agent. I did need to do some sanding and polishing and probably could have gone further but I was happy. It has a much more "watery" look in person than the pictures convey and you don't see the flaws without really close inspection.

LOL.. I keep hoping the day never comes where I really need a watch!
