Iron City Posted December 2, 2008 Author Share Posted December 2, 2008 Thanks everyone for the nice comments. When people appreciate what you are doing it makes you (me) want to try hard and get better with each blade. Even though it's only a RR spike I feel good when I'm working on a knife and it's cool to be able to stand back and say, hey...I made that with my own two hands. I have three more to make by X-Mas, for gifts, after that I'll try my hand at something bigger, my nephew asked if I could make him a Khukri, looks like that will be my first BIG knife. Hey, seriously, thanks again for the great feedback. MetalMuncher, I buffed the crap out of this thing, sisal wheel with matchless fastcut followed by spiral sewn with black magic then spiral, concentric, and loose with matchless white and finally loose muslin with pink scratchless. Was originally going to put a scotchbrite finish on it.... go figure huh? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
