This is my first attempt at a WIP and I am not sure where pictures and text will end up.
The package arrived and this was in it-20151018_130241_resized_1.jpg




Here was the packing list-20151018_131316_resized_2.jpg



I started marking knife and cutting off excess material- 20151018_152248_resized_2.jpg

Working on stops- 20151018_173004_resized.jpg and 20151018_160930_resized.jpg

Somewhere around here I realized that one of my stops had disappeared and I had to call Beth for some.:mad:
She was very nice.

Surface grinding blade it had a slight warp that I was able to get rid of. 20151023_171653_resized.jpg

Maxed out on images for now, maybe more tomorrow.;)
 
Tracy did an incredible job with his tutorial! I have never attempted to make a pocket knife, and his write up made it seem almost easy. It shortened my learning curve tremendously! I would still be scratching my head and wondering how do I do that. Whatever that particular step is.
To avoid my mistake with the stand offs, make sure that you put a screw in each on one side. You have no idea how many times you'll assemble and disassemble this knife as you work on it. I originally left screws in their bag, because I was afraid of loosing them. So instead I loose a standoff :(
