      Custom Kydex Sheaths

      A very big shout out to Slow Hand, for his custom made kydex sheaths. And, he is located in the Indy metro area so I got a chance to talk thru what would work best. I have 3 daggers that I wanted to carry horizontally. I got 3 sheaths, each one held its knife with a perfect friction lock; you...

      Dying Bone Scales?

      I recently got a new Case Mini Copperlock off the net. Great knife, with one exception. The description listed magenta scales, and the photo looked OK. But, as it arrived, the scales are a very "bright" magenta. Not all that attractive to me. Has anyone dyed bone, on the knife before? Any advice...

      Fast Process To Apply for LTCH

      Previous threads have mentioned an outfit you can use to speed up an application for LTCH. Mine expires pretty soon and I have to do it all again. This time I'm going for the Lifetime. Anyway, the last time it took 4 months! I tried the search for previous threads but I guess my headings didn't...

      Sharpening A Recurve

      I've got my eye on a small, fixed recurved blade. I use a Sharpmaker and a diamond stone but have never sharpened a recurve. What do I need to know to keep it sharp? Any special talents required?

      Double Edge Folders?

      Just out of curiosity does anyone have a true double edge folder; either dagger or spear point. If so, would you please share that info? I know some of the Applegare/Fairburns are designed so the double edged blade is totally covered by the scales, but they also come with serrations which I do...

      Legal "Machine Gun"

      Slide Fire, a Texas based company has announced the new Slide Fire SFS-BFR. The rifle will appear to fire like machine gun while actually operating as a semi automatic. Since this method of firing is the result of tweeking things other than the receiver, the ATF has given it a "legal"...

      Aftermarket Clips for Folders

      While I prefer smaller fixed blades, I have two folders I use when I want to be discreet and feel somewhat protected. They are a Kershaw Leek and a Cold Steel Ti-Lite. However, neither knife sits low enough in my back pocket due to the placement of the factory clip. Obviously, I'd like to...

      Heads Up-Scallion Sale

      The Knife Center is having a sale on their Kershaw Scallions: $29.95. These have a yellow nylon handle (must be some kinda left over special run). So, if the color or nylon does not bother you, decent deal.

      Buy Chinese?

      Beer and brats with The Guyz almost always gets around to guns and knives. Last night it was: Do you buy Chinese knives? Why? It goes without saying, there was very little middle ground. Opinions ran from: "Hell, no! Those commies would do us in a second if they thought they'd win".; to "Sure...

      Handle for Blackjack 155

      I bought a Blackjack 155 last year. For those of you who are not familiar with them they are a skeleton blade with a kydex sheath. You often see them described as a neck knife. While neck knives do not work for me I was very impressed with the knife and decided to buy one since they also...

      Shout Out For BHK Bush Pig

      I don't get out in the boonies all that much anymore, but with retirement fast approaching I plan to do some hiking out west. While I have a few bigger knives, I decided to leap all over Blind Horse's March Special, the Bush Pig. For those you who are not familiar with their specials you...

      Double Edge vs. Pikal

      I'd appreciate it if folks would weigh in on a recent Friday night sundowners discussion. A good friend and I both have a few double edged blades among others. However, while we are both aware of the pikal design we have never paid much attention to them, so it's kinda difficult to compare them...

      Cost of .45

      To make a long one shorter; what should I expect to pay for a box of 50? I used to shoot mine a lot, but 2009 hit and I was paying more for shells than gas! I've got a few, 1911's and others, and I've decided they need to be shot now and again. Sources or stores you would recommend? Many...

      What Am I Gonna Do With My Knives

      I've been a knife person my entire life and I've been "collecting" for close to 60 years. I try not to accumulate any more; but I slip off the wagon now and again. The second I saw Joe Cassel's little 5 inch blade (I call it the Cubby) I knew I had another one! It is beautifully designed and...
