Yea Rusty, but it's only because I was the only one who tested that year! huh1 :D You gonna test this year bud?

Welcome Lynnette :) I was going to quietly keep to myself that I had seen the butt shot, but then Clint went ahead and invited himself back in the doghouse. ;) That had to hurt like a son of a gun. VERY glad it wasn't worse!!! Your daughter seems to be off to a really great start. It's...

I think somebody else likes your idea!!! ;) Can't remember when they started doing this... I think around '03 but don't hold me to that. Here's the list of awards and winners from '09. See, you're definitely not crazy Rusty! :D I don't know what the rules for this category are, but one...

VERY NICE Nathan!!! Very pleasing lines and super clean! Cool to be seeing a few pieces coming along in CruForge. I have some but it will be old news by the time I get a knife made out of it. ;) :D Thanks for sharing bud :)

I know everybody who has a funky screen name has some sort of reason for it... but I am 100% in agreement with Les!!! I have always used my full name on all the forums, so my name is put up there every single time I post something (not always good, lol) But I think it's a huge part of...

Hi Darci and welcome :) I started this when I was 12! Unfortunately I didn't have anybody close by (let alone my dad! :) ) who made knives. You are off to an amazing start!!! 2thumbs BTW- where else could you have a 13 year old posting with a bunch of old perverts around AND STILL...

Happy Birthday Tracy!!! 2thumbs It's 25 right??? ;) Hope you have a great, safe, and happy birthday!!!! yea!

Wanted to add: I sure wish I could see somebody flat grind with the Klingspor Jflex belts. I've used the Hermes Jflex for handles for years and would be lost without them. However, I bought some of the Klingspor J flex to try for flat grinding, and they didn't work well for me on my KMG's...

I grind with a 60X Blaze, soften the edges with 220X Polish-O-Ray buffing compound from Brownell's (on a sewn buff) and then heat-treat. Post heat treat: 60X Blaze and take the edge down to about 0.030" 80X disc just to make it flat 120X Norton hogger belt and take edge down to about...

Okay, cool. cool 1 When I was a kid I always wanted to wear my Grandpa's dog tags from the Korean War, or Dad's from his run in the navy... but they always said I'd lose them. I'm sure they were right. :o lol

That's bad-ass!!! 2thumbs Have a great show and safe travels my friend!!! dancing dog

Wow, those are cool!!! I was wondering if a non-military guy wearing dog tags might be disrespectful to our servicemen (no matter what's on them) but considering a bunch of guys that have served our country are posting to this thread... it must not matter. ;) What is the "picture" part of...

Dang... huh1 I know cat piss sure does a number on steel. One of the local tom cats decided to get up on my bench and spray some stuff awhile back... it RUINED a couple of knife blades. I don't know if there's anything that will cause that kind of corrosion! :bulldog1: Well, maybe mouse...

Good to see 'ya here my friend. 2thumbs

I don't think I'm qualified to answer this Rusty! My ADD is way too bad for me to be a reliable source :bud: After a lot of years I can actually do most of this stuff fairly fast IF I can focus. I've had students here, one comes back a lot and has become a friend, Rolland. Rolland gets...

Just a thumbs up/heads up for this stuff. My friend Fitzo turned me onto the stuff in the tube. I ordered it from Tracy and have been using it for a couple months now. It is AWESOME. http://www.usaknifemaker.com/store/3m-feathering-adhesive-5oz-tube-p-40.html I squeeze a little on my...

I hope you don't hate me when I say that everytime I see your screen name I literally say it out loud in the exact same way Jack Black says "naaaachooooo" in Nacho Libre. unsure :D Glad to see another familiar name around here bud :) Paaaaaaanchoooooo!!! 2thumbs

I thought this might be interesting. I've used a lot of them, and three of my favorites are Mirka (bull dog brand), Norton Black Ice, and the RhynoWet Redline from SuperGrit. So what about you guys, what do you like/use??? :)

Thanks for the warm welcome folks! :) This place sure hit the ground running! :) Matt... it's Nick Whurler :D :bud:

Hey Cap, nice to see 'ya here. :)
