Just to let you know how the cutting competition went, it was a tie for first place between my dundee knife and Guycep Guy Stainforths cutter,both knives went cleanly through 3 two litre bottles we then run out of bottles,and cleanly cut 3 inch strands of hanging rope.

Many thanks Mick ,as you know it was only seeing your knives that made me want to make knives.

Everybody at the EMCCU meet who tried the knife seemed suitably impressed with it's cutting abilities, after seeing it being put through it's paces I was even more proud to be the new owner:D
Not exactly an EDC but it is comfortable to wear:)
Thanks to you and your wife Bernie for providing the eats and keeping the fire going, good job. and hope see you again at other meets.
p.s.I think you need to get to one of the official cutting comps with your blades:)

No Probs Jim With the bow,And glad your happy with the knife Russ, i'll definitely will be making another, same spec as the one you have, but with deeper grinds,perhaps up to the fuller,looking forward to the next meet all the best.

That's going to look one real mean knife when you've finished it Bernie. Look forward to seeing the completed item :) Just out of curiousity how long does it take you from start to completion to do a beastie like that?
