I've made 4 or 5 knives using Kirinite and had a disbelief moment yesterday.
I met up with a customer/friend that bought a knife from me & we handled it with Kirinite. He was showing it off & the handle material caught my attention real quick! This knife is only about 8 months old & there was some serious gappage going on near the bolster; reminded me of seeing an old knife that had bone or wood on it & the material move a bunch.
I didn't say anything I guess because I was in disbelief. I'll probably bring it up in due time, but thought I would do some checking before. I never would have thought this could happen. I know any material can move, but this seemed excessive for a synthetic.
Any thoughts???
