If I lived closer, I would come to your house for a lesson or two. Great job helping a new maker get started.

Nice. Really like the braiding.

Opaul - I hope you heal up quickly.

I googled "Mopar Buck Knife" and found several articles regarding this knife. A short look netted a "Dodge Buck Knife". The Buck 110 folder is one of the most popular production knives out there. With only 2500 made, I would guess it is a collector item. Especially for a Mopar fan.

And fire…

I think I have the kit AM-2. Stones are 6x1/2x1/8.

The best part is I hand sanded seven knives this afternoon with very little hand pain. One vest bowei, two Jacksons, four small hunters. All ready for heat treating.

Not yet: Just tried them today. Preheat treat. Give me a week or two.

Beautiful!
