  • Looks great.
    I have to say, you done a good job with that.


    Just a question: before you start the project, did you think about a sabre grind and convex edge? Pure curiosity.


    Keep it up!

    I'm not sure i understand what you mean; from itself the knife has a sabre-hollow grind, and i plan to keep the current V-edge sharp with a diamond paste loaded leather strop, which will create a small convex microbevel fairly quickly.
    This will boost edge strength tremendously while at the same time keep the main bevel nice & thin as to cut fairly well for such a thick blade, better than a complete convex edge.
    Personally i don't really like complete convex edges on folders and smaller blades, only on larger fixed blades meant for chopping.

  • Thanks.
    Was just pure curiosity. I'm more in to convex edges my self.
    But that blade you have there sure is going to be sharp.
    :thumbup:

  • Just put the knife back together again.
    All screws now have a layer of white teflontape, and Nano-Oil was used for the lubrication of the pivot axle.






    @ Kanif: the thinnest portion of the lock-cutout measures 1,1 mm

  • Very nice, clean Edge!!! Can i make a polished Edge like this, with a Lansky Sharpener? The Construction is the same, right? Or is the Wicked Edge different?





    sorry for my crappy English.

    Maybe, i don't know.
    Although personally i have never worked with a Lansky sharpener i know people who get quite good results with one, but i think the Wicked Edge sharpener is the better product that will also deliver better results.
    Main problem is that it's much more expensive than a Lansky, especially if you want all the extra stones & strops (which i don't have)
