Stormcrow Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 My donation blade for Knife Rights' Ultimate Steel fundraiser came a bit late this year, but I got it to them at the Blade Show. I was not able to get a good photo before handing it over.xxxxxxxx.xxxI decided that since Knife Rights aggressively defends the Second Amendment, that one of my Aggression knives would be appropriate. This one is a 12" blade forged from 80CrV2 steel, with marine epoxy-impregnated paracord over leather for the wrap. Usually these are double edged, but, ironically, I made this one have a false edge due to restrictions in different states being different.Knife Rights has been working in Texas for the last several legislative sessions, working this year for a preemption law that would prevent local jurisdictions from having stricter regulations on knives than the states (passed and signed), and a law that would have eliminated restrictions on knives (pulled from getting voted on at the last minute for political vindictiveness having nothing to do with the bill itself). They will be back next session to yet again work for the latter.And I will have another donation piece to support their efforts then, too.

Stormcrow Posted July 2, 2015 Author Share Posted July 2, 2015 I don't know that these pictures are better, but I found these among the photos I took before the Blade Show. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LastRonin Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 It looks great. But that pretty much can go without saying for your work. It should do great for them. Good people with a good agenda. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stormcrow Posted August 1, 2015 Author Share Posted August 1, 2015 What a difference it makes when an actual photographer gets ahold of a knife. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Sells Posted August 1, 2015 Share Posted August 1, 2015 yup it does make a world of difference, its nice one there. I normally hate forge finishes because they look unfinished. this is great. I didnt notice the knot work before either, its very clean Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
