and...my growing collection of Sir Dave Sporks...the latest addition is the one on my left which I was privileged to have made for me in person to my own spec whilst visiting his secret mountain hideaway in the middle of norfolk last week.

beautiful mate, love those sporks!

 

[Man of Tanith]

Looks good.
I like those sporks

 

[Chris the Cat]

Great stuff, as always, both your work and Daves.

Great looking sheath, the popper location seems easy to use is it easy to do it one handed?

not sure if this is what you meant by feedback but (have you though of having a thumb push block to assist with one handed use i.e. like this http://www.tactical-life.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/07/ranger-puukko2.gif)

the sporks are stunning.

 

[HHazeldean]

Ooooooo that sheath is stunning!! Really nice work

The sporks are also very cool

hi...thanks everyone....handy idea but no offence sgt but i would rather burn my sheath than have anything like that on there....maybe ok on kydex....(no comment (though i daresay i'll try it one day out of obligation))...and anyway yup it works fine....the leather is nearly as thick as that kydex lump lol....granted this time the sheath is meant to be as much decorative as practical but i wouldnt waste my time making something verging on useless....(this knife has a history and deserves exception lol!)....

WOW! I love the sheath and the sporks, especially the right one. I like two pronged forks.

well said! and no offence taken in the example its because of the friction lock inside the sheath. Your work is stunning. I just commented out of an interest in the form versus the function.

 

[Angst]

groovy....this sheath grips both at the front of the handle and also at the strap....but once unpoppered a little tug with placement of the index finger on top of the strap and it comes out nicely...now working on Mark III....fingers crossed....and that reminds me, can i order 2 greenman blanks please Sir Dave?

thanks for the reply. Looks fantastic. How much would something like this cost timewise to make?

 

[Dougster]

The press studs there are more secure as they are more unlikely to open pushing through undergrowth.

That is a cracking effort mate, looks superb.

 

[Marmite]

Beautiful work mate, had to check back on the other thread to see which one I prefer... cheek hey......the result, this one but only just as I loved the last one as well . I guess this one nudges forwards on the practicality and the deep browns are superb.

 

[Albus Culter]

Ok, I thought the last one was fine and you're just a perfectionist. But that side fitting of the poppers does look better. Show off

Great work as ever

 

[Dave Budd]

lovely job once again mate the new one is even better than the last.

I've put you down for two GM blades I'll get to them drecktly

I had the pleasure of fondling both sheath and knife a few weekends ago and the only way to describe them is erotic

Probably the nicest things I've had the pleasure of drawling over ever

That's all :You_Rock_

 

[Angst]
