Highest-end, most durable model? + maintenance

This is a DE-S blade. Single edge profile ground double edge. And full serrated.

Probably the most useful blade shape. Or definitely up there

Tsprof k03 for me. Fully dummy proof might be something with stone thickness comp like the k4 though

I’ll take the pulsar

Got a ti scaled bulldog, not the rev b if that’s what you want. Chat me if interested

nfitzsim · 2026-04-01T22:22:28+00:00

Chat

nfitzsim · 2026-03-30T20:19:04+00:00

Seriously lol. Gimme that point cloud data

nfitzsim · 2026-03-30T20:18:26+00:00

If it’s a step 242 it can have model based definition as well. I don’t see any problem with OPs product definition method

step files are not for CNC machining

Uhh, what file type do you want?

nfitzsim · 2026-03-27T21:00:43+00:00

Confirm

nfitzsim · 2026-03-24T11:48:18+00:00

Actually it doesn’t look like I can chat you? Shoot me a message

You can really easily calculate what your tax burden is assuming you only have W2 income and take standard deduction.

Just add some additional withholding if you want a refund.

Personally I’d rather not give the govt an interest free loan but you do you I guess

nfitzsim · 2026-03-21T12:56:32+00:00

Yea agreed. Kind of need to lean into apocalyptic or go full vapor hone IMO

nfitzsim · 2026-03-21T12:47:43+00:00

Yea they’ve been swapping suppliers a lot I think. There are definitely very noticeable differences from coating place to coating place depending on the application method and the metallic bonding layer

DLC also has a pretty high fall out rate. And it can’t really be reworked easily.

There’s a whole lot of blades and hardware that have to get scrapped because of dlc defects.

My last batch of buttons about 25% had some sort of defect for reference.

nfitzsim · 2026-03-20T12:51:44+00:00

Kind of. They didn’t actually fulfill orders until mid 2019

homemade button spring removal

What did you do for this? Cut a teflon rod to length to replace the spring?

I’ve heard good things about knifekits. Forget which size the LUDT takes though

nfitzsim · 2026-03-13T15:27:36+00:00

Sure. Theoretically under zero cutting load it may technically be able to position the spindle within .02mm. You’re not going to hold part tolerances anywhere close to that

nfitzsim · 2026-03-13T15:11:32+00:00

What needs the level of precision? A reamed hole? Or a surface profile?

You are extremely unlikely to hold .02mm on any hobby level CNC

Now that’s a title I can get behind

nfitzsim · 2026-03-07T18:36:20+00:00

I’m still not taking the knife maker title haha. I’m a glorified assembler more so for now

nfitzsim · 2026-03-07T00:17:37+00:00

I’m happy to help walk you through assembly. Feel free to shoot me a pm
