And just cause I can't let Dave keep showing me up I went a little fancy with this one. Pats 1311 needed some pants and with Daves inspiration I went all out. This thing is a beast of a sheath,6 layers thick and 7 layers where the belt loops are on the back. The inlays and overlays are Elephant...
Well since Dave has been making some amazing stuff lately I figured I better step up my game and get the cow hide out. Been busy the last year but managed to knock a few things out.
The Small Forest Axe need a new mask so I worked this up. Came out pretty nice.
Tractor supply is where I always get mine also. They will order the specific size and style I require at no extra charge and then I just go pick it up.
1. Microtech UTX70- this is a sweet little out the front Auto. Small and easily concealed. It is 70% of the size of a regular Ultratech. I have carried and used this knife quite a bit. It shows the usual signs of carry like scratches on the blade and handle and could use a sharpening, it also...
I have to agre with Brad. Decent has a ton to do with the flipping action. Sort of like preloading they blade. Once it moves it just snaps open. I prefer a stronger detent. Also help prevent the blade for being able to accidentally open. If I can shake my blade and it opens I will tighten the pivot.
Some people just refuse to see the value that a higher end knife brings to the table. It like comparing a Kimber to a custom Ed Brown. The Kimber is made of high quality materials and the fit and finish are top notch and will last lifetime but as nice as they are they don't have near the...
well your photo is an example in itself. That beer is a great deal more expensive than many many other beers of good quality. Yet people are willing to pay more for their preference in taste and style. In the end the beer gets you the same result just might taste better to someone while drinking...
Thank you. I bought it from a dealer John sells knives through. VCM Knives is his website. It is a pretty standard swayback jack pattern. Case make some pretty decent ones still for very reasonable prices. If you are looking for something custom like a Lloyd then it can get expensive easily...
I guess sonething bit me but I've really been liking some tradionals lately. Here are a few of my newest acquisitions.
A Case XX Mini Trapper and a custom John Lloyd Mammoth Bark Swayback Jack. I believe the Case is their stainless steel and the Lloyd is cmp 154. I really love the Mammoth...
I think people have blown this way out of context. The fact is, wether you want to admit it or not, knives cut stuff. Often times that stuff bleeds after being cut. A shirt saying Cutting Edge and a pic of a knife could easily be take in a negative way to people out of the know as well. If you...
Thanks guys.
Headless, I usually use 8-9oz leather but with this gun being so lightweight and him want to conceal it as much as possible I went with 6-7oz leather to keep it nice and slim. The stitching is a pain for sure but I was pretty happy with it. I am still working on getting it all to...
I have been super busy the past year with my new twins but finally got some time to do some more leather work. I made this up for a good friend of mines S&W bodyguard 380. Left handed IWB. I put his initials on the reinforcement piece for a little extra effect. It is wet molded to the pistol so...
