dunganick Posted July 7, 2008 Report Share Posted July 7, 2008 get some Allen Screws or Flat heads, would finish it off much better than cross heads. Also could try counter sinking them. But other than that looks excellent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks a awesome knife hope you get good use from it B) the knife blade was £22.00 the green fibre liners were £5.00 the black palm wood was £6.00 and a lot of blood ( especialy cutting the wood in half ) all the cutting / sanding was by hand took about 3 days to make Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lloyd90 Posted July 7, 2008 Report Share Posted July 7, 2008 (edited) I would love one aslong as it came with a sheath. What type of prices are we looking at mate ? Cheers I'm sorry but this is the knife you need. Knife Cheers taz. What a crappy knife, by the time you find the tool on it that you need, you probally wont even need it anymore!

pauldr Posted July 8, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 8, 2008 (edited) i could make the knife for around £45.00 inc postage but it would depend on ,, what type of wood you want , if you want fibre liners in with the knife ( there the bits between the knife and the handle ) as for the sheath i dont make them yet but i can get brown leather sheaths inc firestick holder for £20.00 or you could get your own but £20.00 is the cheapest i have seen them Edited July 8, 2008 by pauldr Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
