Thank you, gentlemen. Dick

The other day a friend asked why I spend so much time making knives. I blew him off with one of the standard answers – “Gives me something to do in the shop when my wife locks me out of the house.” – but the thought wouldn’t go away. I do not pretend to be a poet, but after a few days, this is...

If you haven't tried a KITH... you don't know whaqt you're missing! Last year, with barely a year of knife making under my belt, I sent off a fighter I was reasonably proud of and held my breath. It seemed well received and I got a great little cutter in return. This year I sent a small...

Thanks Patrick - looking forward to it. I got mine out to Archer Moon on yesterday. I'd be up for another round December. Dick

Hey Patrick, My name is Dick Stockford. Looks like your camp knife is going to work in the Maine woods! It looks great and I'll be happy to have it. My shipping info is: Dick Stockford 375 Forest Ave. Bangor, ME 04401 Thanks and best regards, Dick

I found that if I just wave a propane touch over the blade - probably no more that 125 degrees - it works much better. When you do get the blade covered, the scale problems sure do go away! Dick

In 1903 a ranger in what was to become South Africa's largest game preserve was attacked by two lions. He was pulled from his horse and grabbed by the right shoulder by one lion and dragged on his back some 60 feet into the brush. He finally got his left hand to his belt knife and stabbed the...

Obviously, the only thing worse than my photography is my leather work, but here it is... O1 and bird's eye maple, 7.25" oal. The sheath has a belt clip. Dick

Sounds like something I'd like to be a part of... I'm in. Dick Stockford

You're right, Charlie. Sam and his sister, Delila, (he's about twice her size). have been with us for 12 years, and they seem to be pretty much in charge... Dick

This is Sam, Buster's long lost brother :9:. Dick

Can anyone point me towards a tutorial for making fancy ferrules - or perhaps where to acquire them? Thanks. Dick

I got some ATP anti-scale coating from Brownells for use on my O1 blades. It seems to work well, except that I have a real problem getting it to stick to the blades before they go into the oven. I have to let the first coat dry and then touch it up at least once and let it dry again. Anybody...

Congratulations on the move - I recently experienced some computer problems while trying to purchase some items and Korey was quick to come to my aid - she's a keeper! Dick

Hang in there, Mike. You're stronger than you think! Dick

For those of you who use the excellant tip of placing a furnace filter covered box fan to catch dust behind your grinder... please remember that the filter is paper and the sparks are hot! (Ya, ya, I found out the hard way) No real damage done, but the scary part is that the filter didn't start...
