    Smoke and Prayers needed!!!

    Much as I hate to say it, help her find an Attorney. One who deals with situations like this. It's not that I'm into Sueing, but when Hospitals/Doctors have this attitude problem, and it's something I've had happen with a Pediatrician and my Nephew, something serious needs to be done! My...

    Caffrey Knives is now a VA approved Training Facility!

    Exactly the attitude to have, Ed. And I should be wearing my own!:34: This is a really great thing to be doing, for Knifemaking as well as our Vets. But all it can take is one moment's lapse of attention to get hurt. And for men, and women, who've been in combat, safety will have to be...

    Indian George - A little Help

    Good to hear you're home, IG. Take it easy, don't overdo it ... Ahh, hell, the Docs & Nurses probably already told you all that crap. Heal well, heal right. :3:

    Smoke for a Friend

    Damn! Disc problems to go with it? Been there, still there. L3-4 Discectomy, then Fusion, with accompanying damage to Sciatic Nerve roots. Not a fun time ahead for David but, if he does what he's told, it should turn out better for him than it did me. Back surgery has come quite a ways...

    Indian George - A little Help

    Damn! I admit, I haven't been around here much lately, and I find this. IG, all the best to you from me & my Missus. Hang in there, do what the Docs, and the Nurses, tell you to do, and don't overextend yourself. Smoke & Prayers on the way.

    Re-profiling bevel angles. When?

    Convex is the way to go. Easy to do, and plenty of support behind that edge.:3:

    Dying Production Knives

    I do rehandle work, but I've never tried that. With Micartas or G-10, I can't see it working. Nor on Stabilized Wood. The dye would not be able to penetrate the handle material. Wood that's not stabilized, or treated in any way, like with linseed oil/shellac, should probably take the...

    My new knife shop

    Damn, that's nice!:3: I could use something like that just for the rehandle work. It'd be far better than my basement. All the dust ain't doing my furnace, or the well pump, any good. I am so envious.:34:

    Things a little slow right now

    RMI's(Repetitive Motion Injuries) are nothing to mess with. Wear the brace as much as possible. The less your arm moves, the better.:cool: And listen to your Doc! You guys talk about 40, wait until ya hit 50!:34:

    Damned hospitals. Ya think they'd be a bit cleaner, but I guess not.:34: Smoke on the way, IW.:3:

    Carbon Fiber Scale Give-a-way

    What the hell, I'll give it a shot and squeak in here with a half hour left. However, I see my favorite #, 77(just like 69 'cept ya get 8 more:9:), is taken, so I'll go with 76.:3: Thanks for the opportunity Bruce.:biggrin:

    OK, been gone for a while, but what are the little rods?

    :3: Yep, firesteels. I've made a couple or 3. Now, who did I get the rods from??? Could it've been our own BossDog?:biggrin:
