I just beat the shit out of it mate, it deforms the Damascus and creates the pattern otherwise the lines would be straight and boring.

Loved the Fox River but handle was too short for me. Looks like BRK listened and put a Gunny handle on a Fox River blade. Genius. Now how do I afford (another)one?
where do you get the ebony from? looking for some plugs for a rifle stock. mind you doesn't have to be ebony just something interesting.

I was having rare lye in on satuday when an email came in from DLT. 6 days later this turned up, I took the cheap shipping option as well but still rapid delivery.Im thinking @Tahr will have to go on my ignore list soon.

What's the handle material on that?
This is the II. blade is a touch over 4". I read your description a while ago on the steel a while ago which convinced me to give it ago.
10mm is the hole size.
I still have to fill in 5 holes from old buggered sling mounts but would like to try to hide those and I have an old manky 303 stock that might donate some of itself to but I'll have to get a plug drill if I go that way.
Nice knives by the way. Makes my 25 year old unfinished project from an old file look way way rough lol.
Depth?
I would need 2 at 5mm or longer to sand back once glued and 2 at 8mm or longer.
They are for some hand/home made stock recoil bolts.
thank you @Nga
I finally got around to taking some of my collection whilst shooting pics for the shop.
This is a fixed blade art knife made by Corrie Schoeman in the late 70's. I don't know which steels were used in the making of the blade.
A good few spots and marks on the blade but then it is 40+ years old. I might have a crack at cleaning them off some time but for now its oiled and stored.
Never came with a sheath as it was meant to be displayed.

Some of favourite knives. The 2 engraved Benchmades I gave to my sons. The other Benchmade is current favourite.
Could be...
Hahaha...you are right. You'll have to come over and have a look at it. A bit different from the other Nikl's as has more meat in it.
You're not wrong...why I picked up an extra. That one and the little one are a set I got him to do with a steel. The others are singles with a steel. He is a legend.https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...83b863531c.jpg

Quite a small knife, about a 3 inch blade but nicely balanced.
Would make a good utility.
Spyderco PMII turned up today

Exclusive knife to KnifeCentre in CPM CRU-WEAR steel. Super sharp out the box. So sharp that the first thing I did with it was drop it. It went through both my shoe and my sock and proceeded into my foot.

Also grabbed an Ontario Knife Co RAT 2.

Nice knife for a cheapy.
OUCH!
@kiwijames now you might find that the most effective way to trim your toe nails is to "take the bloody shoes and socks off"!
Our maybe that's just me carry on;)
Good job it was only the blunt end that got ya other wise we would be all clamouring for the before and after photo shoot.....knife stuck through shoe and foot before pic and knife stuck through foot after shoe has been removed....obviously we want you to cut the shoe off, our you can pull the knife and stick it back in if your fond of ya Bart A Bullets:thumbsup:
