We all need that push and sometimes its a long way in between them. I can feel the excitement from here. I had a push last year when a guy called the shop wanting to look, stopped by and bought all three knives I had on the bench. It's nice to know people appreciate what you make. Good...

This should be a great show. I like the one day format and I figure the table holders feel likewise. Good luck at the show Tim, hope you sell some of my knives; but not the bears :) Regards, Fred

This giveaway is closed, we'll check the OHIO pic 3 for this evening and announce the winner at 8 PM. This is our fall giveaway here on KD. We are giving away a complete "Orange" Bubble Jig grinding system with a mystery steel to grind on. The reason its a mystery is I haven't made it yet...

Good Morning Dogs! I know a good deal about, Attention Deficit Hyperactive Disorder, I have to; I have a child who has the condition and the only way to deal with it is to understand it. My son's doctor explained to me that in early prehistoric man this condition was an asset. People with...

I agree there AR; a ceramic 120 will establish the secondary bevel in just a few passes, using a 2x72 belt on creep speed. I go 120 220 400 600 and then the cardboard wheel. Scary sharp in 10 minutes. I use a Bubble Jig to reference the desired angle.

Sweet; did you mean 3/32"?

This is one way of doing it. http://youtu.be/1uLbQEm7Zbw

In flat grinding; No matter how thin the bevel is ground at the edge; if an angle of 24 degrees inclusive, is ground on the secondary or edge bevel, the blades sharpness will be the same; just the height of the secondary grind will be different. The thicker the stock , the higher the secondary...

Very nice, like your sheath work; something a bit different. I believe there tends to be to much symmetry in sheath design these days. What you did here brings interest and a bit of mystery to the whole package. The jade band is a nice touch. Fred

You can count on me, I wear old fart in comfort.
