Re: Show us your new knife!
Great knife. I keep on drooling when I come across his IG.Marc4pt0 wrote: ↑Sun Dec 10, 2017 1:12 pm 220mm from Oatley. Good stuff!
Can't seem to add actual photo, keeps saying file too large. So here's a link. Suppose that'll have to do for now

Re: Show us your new knife!
I had this delivered last week. My first fully custom knife that started life as a vector drawing I did on my tablet. So pleased with it. Many thanks to Timos for this patience and his handy skills!

Re: Show us your new knife!
That is quite a large picture of such a small knife. I don't always drive and thus don't carry my keys so I don't use a key chain knife. I am normally out and about in farm country and have a fixed blade (LT wright) but if I am going towning I will use my Rat1. I should get one in D2 before they run out again.

Re: Show us your new knife!
I did the handle. All made up from about 20 bucks worth of material. Ebony, horn and stainless spacer.
Re: Show us your new knife!
Nice! Much appreciated. Haven't had issues posting pics before, not sure why that time. Kept saying file size too large. When that's the case I usually just screenshot the pic which typically decreases the file size immensely.

Re: Show us your new knife!
Traded it for a Kono Fujiyama Blue #2 I had just purchased. Didn't know it was in that kind of shape (other than the tip), but I like the overall dimensions better than the Kono so I'm ok with it even if it wasn't an "even" trade. Looking forward to seeing it after sending it for a spa treatment.
