    Complete step-by step knife and sheath...

    Really not a very visual installment. A lot of the pics looked the same so I narrowed it down to these. Here's what we start with. Blocky scales shaped to the tang (sorry for the blurry pic)..... I start by simply running the scales over the corner of the scotchbrite wheel on both sides...

    Complete step-by step knife and sheath...

    Making/installing screw on scales... Fitting the scales. I attach scales either with screws and threaded standoffs or epoxy and corby bolts. I thought I would just show the threaded standoff method since a lot of the steps are the same and doing both would be a little confusing. I start out...

    Complete step-by step knife and sheath...

    Clean up flats..... Back at it cleaning up the flats...... Depending on how flat i got the blanks before heat treat I start with a fresh 60 or 120 grit belt (60 in this case). I set up the KMG with the flat platen and get them good and flat with the rougher belt (until all the HT scale is...

A fairly complete step by step from cutting out the pattern, to attaching scales (screw on in this case) and finally finishing up with a kydex/leather hybrid sheath I...

    Balancing Orders vs New Design Ideas

    Great thread. This is something I have been trying to work out. It doesn't take too long to get me backed up when I take orders and I really don't like having people wait too long. I find it very hard to say no to an order but, for a while anyway, I'm splitting up the stuff I make between...

    NWG and KNG owners need some help

    I like my 10" wheel....in fact I'm thinking of getting a 12 or 14. But you could make an 8 do just about anything you want. I lean towards bigger and/or fatter blades so I like the height I get out of a 10" wheel. On the small wheel I use the 1" and 1.5" more than any. My flat platen is...
