Thanks Jonathan, I'll have to be happy at that, I need my remaining kidney.

No close ups on a first date

Kinell Martin! Another one! An amazing collection to say the least. I'd have to say my faves are the two in the top right column and the second ones from the bottom left and right column. Not that I'd turn down any of them of course!

Tenner for a lick?

No people juices, it'll get rusty. It needs carefully coating in many layers of Ren wax and buffing to a fine finish before being encased in a custom walnut display box.

I had one of those when it eventually came up for sale and all my free money was tied into my new bushcrafter from Stu.

Quick question here for those with the damasteel Woodlore's .... if you use them .... and that is whether you go for a micro bevel touch up to the edge to preserve the pattern .... or sharpen using the scandi grind and risk losing the pattern ?

Asethetic's I know .... but cannot decide on the later option just yet .... mine came not quite razor sharp .... so I have done a micro bevel on the edge and now it is hair popping .... but eventually I will need to alter this method .... and thoughts as to what or how you have done yours would be welcome ....

 

[JonathanD]

On a Woody profile blade with quite a low scandi grind you should sharpen using the whole edge, otherwise you will eventually ruin it. On a user, damasteel looks good afer use anyway.

 

[PeterHW]

Yes ... I think that's the only logical way to go .... some pic's of used damasteel woodlore's to see how the pattern changes would be of interest if you have them .....

I voted planning to own one to use it. I received mine in the post a fortnight ago but now have to sell it with no more than being taken from the sheath due to sudden ill health

Thanks Jonathan ..... I have used a Mike Lamprey Titanium Folder for a number of years which has a Damasteel Blade and it does take a great edge .... being flat ground though the edge does'nt impact on the pattern with that design.
It is interesting to see that your Damasteel Woodlore has a slight hollow grind to the scandi edge just like the RM ones .... in time therefore with some sharpening the edge will just go to a pure clean steel look .... which actually will look quite nice .... so that at least helps aleviate my concerns .... many thanks for doing the photo's mate ....

I'm sure a Woodlore is a perfectly servicable tool and just as good as many others out there but harder to get due to waiting lists etc.

I wouldn't bother myself, I'm quite happy with my Bernie Garland Bushcrafter ^^. I can maintain it as sharp as I need it to be and it's sturdy as hell.

i could'nt afford one , plane and simple ..
