    Thanks Rabid, the wolf paw Opinel holding up alright? Griff Yes, no problems at all, although I try not to use it too much for fear of breaking/losing it. First carve i did that one so a bit of nostalgia with it, Nice to hear it is being looked after. Griff

    It's a nice bit of kit mate Particularly nice piece of antler that one(compliments of Sussex), most have a pithy core but that one is solid white bone right through. Can never tell until you start working with it. Griff

    I will have to take a look. I got the idea from searching fiction folder on google images....the rest i just made up as i went along. The idea was to make a legal carry knife (blade is 65mm) with durable cutting edge and a decent point. I sharpened it up, sliced up a medium size cardboard box into 1" strips and it still slices paper held between thumb & forefinger..... so i think mission accomplished.

    Made up this simple folder at the weekend. Calling it "Tinkers Companion" as i made it from what was lying around. Blade id a piece of HSS knife out of my Planer/thicknesser cold ground to retain original temper. Handle a cutting of antler. Stainless pins with brass seats made from rollers out of old curtain track. Phosphor bronze contact plates. Silver buffalo end cap.

    Just checked the price of a Dyson hair drier Think you have a good case to buy another knife.....in fact if you are doing a trade-off you could have two for that price! Griff

    Finally caught up on back orders and have these 2 antler tine Opinels to offer. They both have self lubricating phosphor bronze liners in the pivot end which in a good upgrade on the standard method. No7 £60 posted No8 £65 posted. Griff

    Been a while since i made a knife from scratch, made up this design a while back and decided to give it a go. Blade 5 inches landy leaf spring, handle 4.25 inch micarta cast direct on/through the tang, Kydex sheath with Tek-Lok. Wide blade for skinning, pointy enough to be useful, tough spring steel that takes a good edge but will take punishment. I have a bigger one i use for everything and love it. Few WIP pics here http://www.thehuntinglife.com/forums/topic/339556-make-your-own-tools-thread/page-19 And additional pics here http://s166.photobucket.com/user/gruffalogriff/library/Hunter?so

    Yes all's well that ends well! Just a case of finding the right person....better off sitting in a collection that one! Just going to list the 5" blade Hunter/skinner, it is more of a practical working mans knife! http://s166.photobucket.com/user/gruffalogriff/library/Hunter?sort=3&page=1 Griff
  22. GruffaloGriff
    Nice looking antler that, where do you get it form? Do you do anything with the tapered tip cut off? Griff
  23. GruffaloGriff
    SOLD! Thanks lads for all the banter...its been fun...hope no offense given and certainly none taken............ Didn't quite make it to the 10 pages but did make it to the front page hall of fame in most replies in the miscellaneous. Now on its way to a collector in London. Griff
