This one was fun
« on: February 13, 2013, 05:14:00 PM »
Guy's I think I may have been neglecting my posting responsiblity,so here's one to look at.

This knife started last Saturday evening when my wife and I where out to supper and I asked what she would like for Valintine Day,She quickly blurted out I want a new Knife! I said holy ----.
She went on to say she wanted to up-date the one she carries hunting,its an Old Timer Folder ,(she hunts alot)and takes care of her own game,and she is my Cook.I said no problem.
She order her own scales ,and wanted it to be similar to her old knife only a liner lock.
Well I got it done today ,what a great project she was always coming in and checking on progress and today helped anodize the liners to the color she prefered.
I never thought about asking her if she wanted a knife before ,but sure am glad to make her a hunting folder.

I guess maybe this will remind you guys to wish your ,cook ,spouse,mate or friend a Happy Valintines Day tomarrow.

Oh yea she said tell you guys she won't have trouble finding it in the grass.LOL

  Kevin your pics are way way to big.please resize. thanks<><


Can't figure out how to do it on photobucket Stick  
Please tell me if they are OK now,

Go to  http://webresizer.com/.  Upload your photo and put it any dimension you want. It will re-size.
Then save the new photo to your own file.

When the last elk vanishes from the hills,
When the last buffalo falls on the plains,
I will hunt mice for I am a hunter and I must have my freedom.

Kevin,
Really nice folder.  I think I need to come to MO and take some lessons   :)  

Karl,
Thanks for that websizer.com page.  Photobucket doesn't seem to work for me anymore especially with our slow internet here in SC.

If she cooks half as good as you build folders, you do some FINE dining!!

That's beautiful!!

Very nice liner lock. Clean lines and looks to be easy in the hand.
