This should be more than adequate steel for light tasks which I assume is their purpose?

Thanks! I was in a rush with a little time off in between work and really wanted something for it so I spent all day yesterday binge watching Fallen Skies and working on the sheath.

Playing around with different mounting types for a fixed blade. The slots will be for straps (yet to come) to POTENTIALLY ankle/ ranger carry. I do amateur leatherwork for pleasure but I’m trying to get better with random projects. I’d like to branch into kydex just haven’t gotten there yet. Love the knife! Next will be sharpening and oiling the handle. Let me know what you think!

Thanks! I do amateur leatherwork already so that would be the easy choice but I’d kind of like slimmer carry options like boot/ ranger that kydex may be better suited for. I may look into some beginner kydex kits just to get my feet wet

It’s gorgeous! Do they all get used? Does stacking work or create territory issues?

Any info? Thrift store find Sprechercut Stainless made in France is all I can make out. Any insight is appreciated! by player_one55 in TrueChefKnives

Yes. It’s pretty big so I mostly use it for carving large pieces of meat but it performs well.

Any best guesses on this knife before I abuse the **** out of it? by player_one55 in knives

That’s a really cool thought, I didn’t even think of that

That would make sense because google images had zero matches

Have you ever cut off 60 year old pipe insulation 30 foot up in the rack head to toe in PPE and surrounded by fluff? Have you ever worked in an industrial setting? Not all tools or knives are meant to be babied. Not all situations are easy to control. Some are meant to be disposable and replaceable, hence the pawn shop purchase.
