It is with sincere apologies to naefearjustbeer that I begin this posting. I received his amazingly generous home made knife well before christmas, with the full intention of posting pix of it, but things just seemed to get in the way. So I finally got the camera closer to the PC and downloaded the photos I took of it on Friday. Sorry it took so long to post the pix.
So here's my little beauty. Hopefully you'll get some idea of how excited I was when I first realised what was under that bubble wrap.
Apparently it's made from an old file, so you can see its thickness here. There's not much chance of this thing bending.
Which naturally gave me an idea.... Read on below.
I've been meaning to do a modification on my tomahawk for a while now, so it seemed logical to use a tool that used to be another tool in it's previous life.
So I took my new and very sturdy knife and trimmed the axe head down a bit. Not bad eh? Worked a treat in fact, bit like a hot knife through butter and all it needed was a gentle strop afterwards to restore the edge. Well impressed to say the least!
So in closing, a huge thank you to naefearjustbeer for the lovely knife. Works a treat mate. Got an old safe I want to cut into strips now, that knife should do the job perfectly. Luke can keep his lightsabre I got a
proper knife.
No, you can't have it back.
John, I hope your pressie arrives very soon. Bummer that it hasn't already.
