I was impressed with the skill shown by BCUK until i saw these....

some people just have too much spare time.

Wow, I was awesomely bad at this ! ! Not worth posting a picture of 20 knackered matches I don't think.

 

[Twodogs]

Wow that is a fine grinder

[Iona]

I actually managed one!!!

And then found that I don't have the cable for my stoopid new phone...

I am cradling my effort til I find a way of posting it... I'm so proud...

Love this thread.
My effort.....not very good..

But then I was doing it with my 'Live' competition katana

 

[Toddy]

Well I did mine, took the photos and now I can't get them to load and my tech refs are all busy trying to fix an enormous wide screen tv
Hopefully tomorrow I'll get then loaded.

cheers,
Toddy

Shewie. There was no quote button at the bottom of your post. However, I wish to state that I am in awe of the skill, no matter what the tool! Waaaaay better than mine, even when I have the facility to share...

Thanks Iona, the angle grinder was supposed to be a joke but I'll happily take the compliments

The little Opinel folder was up to the task though.

Wish I liked my user name enough to have it carved into my knife

 

[sargey]

very cool competition keep 'em coming.

it's a curiously addictive and frustrating passtime innit.

this is just for fun, not an actual entry.

i did these with my trusty modified fallkniven S1

cheers, and.

 

[Cap'n Badger]

Wow.....Sargey!......that last pic is soooo cool.....Looks liken ye are usin' a knife made of GLASS! .....The new S1 'invisible blade'...lol

 

[sargey]

the power of suggestion...

i had no idea what you meant till i sat and looked for a while. now i see what you mean.

but what's a pirate doing with a katana?

cheers, and.

 

[Cap'n Badger]

Twas given t' me after ten years o' running my 'Rock Night' by the punters Sargey.....so I have done s'thing right in entertaining the masses t' warrent such a gift....Tis a full 'live' competition Katana bought from the Amerikeys....An' most definatly the sharpest tool in my collection.




Watch out fer Ninjas......they're damn sneaky!

 

[sargey]

roll up! roll up!

been having a bit of a conflab with wilderbeast, and we're changing the rules a little...

every entry will go into a hat for another prize. (it'll be good'un) so, no matter how good you think your match is, or how good you think the competition is, have a go. get stuck into those matches and start making some shavings! you've got just as much chance as the next person of winning.


cheers, and.

Here is my attempt with my latest knife

 

[nuphoria]

This thread is a great excuse for showing some lovely knives

Oh, and some cunningly crafted matches too!
