Best was a few years ago, and my sister's then b/f ran his thumb straight down a blade to test the edge. *fruitcage* tard.  http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v507/Mor...de/IMG_5172.jpg  Once again, making me want things.

Triggerhappychappy Posted July 11, 2009 Report Share Posted July 11, 2009 Well, Im jealous of some of you guys, all I got is this old thing: Â Â I 'aquired' it back in '95, on my first year trip to France (Mont saint Michelle to be precise, the little gift shop right at the top). Had it ever since- useful for opening boxes and letters etc, hence why its been sharpended to death, as you can probably see from the amount of blade thats been removed from the lower edge. Still takes an edge well for an old girl... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Moriquende Posted July 12, 2009 Report Share Posted July 12, 2009 (edited) Is it a Buck? Edited July 12, 2009 by Moriquende Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Triggerhappychappy Posted July 13, 2009 Report Share Posted July 13, 2009 (edited) No idea. It has "Stainless Pakistan" stamped on the blade, ands thats as much as I know.. Â EDIT: Its 8 1/2" long (open), 3 3/4" blade length. Edited July 13, 2009 by Triggerhappychappy Quote Link to post Share on other sites

J-Rock_14 Posted August 16, 2009 Report Share Posted August 16, 2009 I can see somebody accidentally cutting themselves with that, considering that you don't have any tang on it. But those are pretty awesome looking, and they look like they were proffessionally made. :] Quote Link to post Share on other sites

But those are pretty awesome looking, and they look like they were proffessionally made. :] You mean it doesn't have a guard on it? Â I fail to see the problem. Your typical Mora or Puuko doesn't have a guard and people certainly don't cut themselves with that. I've actually seen more people cut themselves with knives that have a guard than those without. Â Â Very nice knives, love that filework. What steel and wood did you use? Â Edit: fixed quote. Edited August 17, 2009 by Moriquende Quote Link to post Share on other sites

r.ocelot Posted September 11, 2009 Report Share Posted September 11, 2009 Cook the blade in 50/50 FeCl/white vinegar, put on a satin finish, mark areas that you want to be shiny with nail polish, cook the blade again, use nail polish remover to remove the nail polish, voila. Â And nope, doesn't mean anything. Looks like it should, eh? Â As for cleaning up the Ti, you can just cook the hardware in OxyClean. That'll put a nice patina on it.
