Thanks a lot JJ, I have had that knife a few years now, and it cost me £8! I have a friend who buys and sells second-hand tools, and it was in with a load he had bought. I didn't know him so well at the time, and he thought that I was only interested in folders, so he didn't set it aside for me. The first I knew of it was when another feller picked it up, and was having a good look at it. My mate told him it was £10. I said it was a bargain, and advised the bloke looking at it to buy it. I told him that if he didn't, I definitely would. He looked at it some more, then said he wasn't going to bother, as he reckoned he could always make a knife like that. I told my pal that it was worth more than £10, but he wouldn't even take that off me :D I think someone made it from an O1 blade, but they did a good job, and it came in a decent sheath. Takes a razor sharp edge too :) :thumbsup:

Hope everyone is having a great weekend. I had a good hike yesterday, but injured my back getting over a broken stile, so no pics today I'm afraid, as sitting at my computer chair is painful. Carrying my Hartshead Barlow and Charlie's Black Jack. Have a pleasant Sunday folks :thumbsup:
