Stormcrow Posted December 6, 2012 Posted December 6, 2012 This pair was commissioned by a Marine for himself and his brother. The design was based on one I made for another Marine about a year ago, but with the blades a bit wider and with more belly. The steel is 5160, with olive drab and black paracord handle wraps impregnated with Minwax Wood Hardener. The angle of the top edge bevel is too wide for it to be shaving sharp, but it'll carve flesh right handily if need be. The main edge shaves hair. The sheaths are black Kydex with TekLoks. Quote
homeshow Posted December 7, 2012 Posted December 7, 2012 Did the paracord get shiny with the wood hardener? Quote
Stormcrow Posted December 8, 2012 Author Posted December 8, 2012 It'll get shiny if you keep applying it past the point of saturation. I've found I can dull it back down with a Scotchbrite ball chucked up in a drill if that happens, though. Quote
