Just finished this one, 3 finger skinner, 154cm, red canvas, black liners, mosaic pins and a pocket sheath (no belt loop). Not exactly sure, but I think I had some etching solution leaked out from around my stencil as I have two very tiny marks that will not buff out.

America needs to understand that our troops are not 'disposable'. Each represents a family; Fathers, Mothers, Sons, Daughters, Cousins, Uncles, Aunts... Our Citizens are our most valuable treasure; we waste far too many.

Thanks Guys.
Dan.....how do you grind the old files? Do you anneal them first? I love the dark color of those blades.

Finished a couple more. Both are 154CM, green with loveless bolts is for my oldest daughter, she picked out the color. Blue is kind of a paring knife. It was made from a scrap piece of 154CM after I cut out another blank.

Nice looking knives there J.
The only thing I don't like about the Loveless bolts is that little gap you get in the finished product because of the threads, other than that I love-um.

G,
This was my first time using the loveless bolts. I agree, drove me nuts trying to sand them down and get rid of the gap. Finally gave up and realized I was just chasing around in a circle.
I see I need to work on getting better pictures. It's a lot harder to get good knife pictures than I thought it would be.
