Great job! Looks awesome.

pRETTTY Cool!

Thanks Murph! I need to take a stab at spelling! lol TACTICAL.

Hey Guys. I made this combo after reading this tutorial by M.Olexey. http://knifedogs.com/showthread.php?2303-Complete-step-by-step-knife-and-sheath... Im giving the knife to a kid going into the Navy.

Thanks Guys! Ill check those binding screws out Fellhoelter. These 3/16 are a little too small for this application. I may try them on some 1/8 steel. Im going to just pin these knives and try the standoffs or the binding screws on my next batch.

Right on Clint. More then one way to skin a cat. I probably will plate quench again this go around. I was curious about the oil procedure because I never hear anyone talk about it. I appreciate the tips and info man. Thanks

Looks saweet bro. Very crisp and clean.

Thanks Boss! Yes they are for holding handles on a fixed blade. Ill roll with it then! And thanks for the quick delivery on my order.

Yep....Love all your work bro. Im doing a build following your tutorial now. Thanks for sharing your techniques.

I got the standoffs from USAknifemaker.com Torx head screws also. The standoffs werent too small I just drilled the holes too big. Ill use smaller bit next time and try to drive them in. I think I may use .25 inch standoffs in the future also. The 3/16 look a little small though I havent put...

Hey Guys. Im using standoffs and torx heads to hold the scales on my current projects. I ordered 3/16 x 3/16 standoffs to go with the 3/16 steel im using. I drilled my holes at 3/16 figuring the 3/16 standoffs would have to be pressed in a little but I have a few that are loose. Do I just...

Thanks Silverman.....I totally missed your reply yesterday. So I guess you just oil quench the blades with the foil on them like with the plates?

Thanks John! I usually dont have a problem....just got greedy and tried to get them all at once. Why is the oil quench frowned upon by so many. Is it just the mess?

Thanks Sampson. What quench oil are you using for ATS -34? Are you SS foil wrapping the blades when using the oil as a quenchent? These blades are 3/16 so im sure I didnt get it cool fast enough. I usually get a 59 or 60 after tempering. Im leaning on just re heattreating them this weekend...

Hey guys. I heat treated some ats-34 at 1930 for 30 minutes then tempered at 275 for two hrs. My rockwell ended up at 57 hrc. I think my aluminum quench plates were not big enough to do all 4 big blades at the same time. My question is: Would a dry ice treatment raise the rockwell after I...

Wd 40 will clean white micarta pretty good. Even after buffing.

Nice work.

I got my knife from Mike Jones! Its a very solidly built knife that fits nice and tight in the sheath.The wood is very beautiful which comes from his own supply which he sells. I think its amazing that a kid his age is making knives, selling wood and building his own tools and machines.And...

Take a chisel and hammer and the plasma cutter slag will pop right off.
