[Sharp & Fiery]

you can put me in your will or trust for your David Mary folder....I won't mind......

That would be the smart thing to do…

Live long and carry tip down.

But seriously... tip up is still an option, right?

Yes.

AS LONG AS I GET S/N #00000 OR #00001 I WONT DIE ON YOU

David Mary , I really like the way you're shaping that kydex. Something about that rounded tip and how you blend the line starting at the top. Good stuff.

You don't get to put something like that on me, even in jest. Reread the post you quoted, but think "between the lines".

Thank you for the kind words and for getting the thread back on track.

This looks similar to the re-blade you did for me way back when

Handle as well - but that is a good thing - use the past as a learning experience and take that forward - both good and bad

 

[David Mary]

Thank you. For now, just trying to make the folding knife I have always wanted, but could never find anywhere. When I get it dialed in so that I am happy with what I can produce, I will think about coming up with something new and "original".

Take what is useful and discard what is not - everything is an example, sometimes on what/why/how to do, sometimes on what/why/how not to do

Happy Canada Day, David (and any other Canucks around here)!

I like tip-down when carrying against the seam of a rear pocket or thin knives with flippers in a shirt pocket. They align better on the draw.

BTW, deep-carry wire clips are bee's knees. A couple of slots for either position are right as rain.

 

[David Mary]

Thank you for reminding me. Wire clip it shall be. Always been my favorite.

Back to work after the Canada Day long weekend. Tomorrow install grip texture and ergos with the dremel.

Thank you!! And Happy Tuesday to you!
