New guy from Norway

[LesterTroll]

Hey guys, I’m into custom vintage bikes, ground up builds but as a side project I will be having a go at a few slip joints. I have started a couple but need more know how so here I am! You guys are really talented, some of the builds I have seen are amazing!!!! Teach me teach me. I have a fairly well equiped shop, no HT besides a map tourch and a BBQ. I will see how this goes and see what I cannt do without.... .
Anybody know of Lanny’s Clip patters or CAD to be sharef let me know.

Cheers
LesterTroll

Welcome at KnifeDogs, Lester.
Many of the members here are talented indeed, and on average quite happy to share their knowledge.
Maybe you can start by showing some of the knives you have built so far?

 

[LesterTroll]

Johan,
Thanks for chiming in, as mentioned I have only started a few slip joints, none completed and I may neew to start over on them due lack of know how... sured leared alot by all the mistakes. Here is one in progress I have pictures of on my phone.

See the link above. John Wilson is busy with a folder KITH & WIP. There is some great info in there. Don Robinson which is also on the forum has written a book on building folding knives. It is for sale on the internet at a reasonable price. He also has some plans for folders that you can purchase from him.

Hi, another Norwegian maker here, but living in Sydney. Was back in Norway in August and went to the Elverum show, was great to see so many Norwegian makers.

Hei!
har 5-6 "projekt" på gang som ikke er sikkert noen gang blir ferdige
Er morsommere å smi noe nytt om dagen enn å bruke flere dager på å gjøre ferdig bladene, så går tregt.
Lager litt kjøkken kniver.

Wow what a wonderful looking knife

Thank you. I kept making this as a stick tang and then later as a fulltang. Call it my "scandichef" and then had these blades made in France to my design. Sell them on my site in Australia as blades for knife making kits, on creativeman.com.au

I don't remember receiving a request for plans.

Please send me an email.
