Recommended Posts

im scrabbling about for bits of antler again...so i pick up some weird bits and have a feel of them...to see if there is a knife in them somewhere...........

so this is the story so far....how this one will turn out god only knows..:lol:

but i do like the way your thumb sits on the spine of the handle....it says "yes i can cut when you grip me"..........anyway we will see......

it is an old model used opinel with the old style drop forged monogram...and old style transfer's on the handle...

i have cut it a bit long so there is some play room........

well what a pain in the rear that was............chipper belonged to "funny sally".......(she cant make her mind up if she is a lesi or straight) used to work in the N&N in the broken leg dept'.....but now has a grant and she is getting into acting........

anyway it was her chipper and she left it outside during the winter...like wimin do and it all rusted up ...and putting barbed wire thro it dont help....so she gave it to american tony..."the notif of sheringham"...he got the motor working again....but brought the rest over for me to do....couldnt use heat on it as it would change the temper on the cutters...so used my impact screwdiver...WHICH BLOODY BROKE...so drilled it out retapped it ....made new set screws and sharpened it....bit of paint ....bob on....

back to knife making..

Et Voila :yahoo:

yet another different one...decieded not to bling it up by putting a ring thro the handle...as it looked sweet as it is..........all ive got to do is put the ceramic on the edge and rivet it ...once i have riveted it then its not mine anymore..........

The end...
