Is a plunge at the ricasso really necessary? It seems that every knife I have ever had break was at the ricasso plunge line. Granted they were all El Cheapo's that did this, but it seems that this is/would be a weak point in a blade. On my latest knife attempt I just beveled it up to the...

I am Heartbroken. I wanted so much to go but We lost a U-joint and there goes that.... Tracy I contacted Mr.Ritter at Kniferights.Org as I had already purchased My tickets for the "Sharper Future" Breakfast. He is transferring that slot to you. I'm sure someone can use it. Maybe next year.....

Okay I have never done any knife making or kit put together of any kind. I have a coffin handle Bowie and some Goncalo Alves scales. It calls for 6 .120" pins OR 2 .180" pins,bolts etc. What is the best way to do this? I didn't see a tutorial on this... but maybe I'm blind? What do I need to do...

OK this may be a silly question,buuuut... Who in your opinion is the best maker of HC Fixed Blades and who is the best maker of slipjoints and Folders? I am honestly less concerned with appearances,than Performance. I'm not as much interested in eye candy as working well. I know all makers...
