I've kicked it up a notch... actually about 10 notches!! extra_happy.gif
I saved up a lot to get this. It's a KMG 2X72 belt grinder . Definitely a top shelf knife grinder, I'm in deep now. It will save me countless hours considering that all of my previous work was done by hand... draw-filing with bastard-mill files. whew.gif
This is one mean machine!

Well, it's officially knife making season for me. emoticon-object-024.gif
I'll be making a camping knife for my sister next, but first.... I am designing a new hip sheath for the Lapis Damascus I made for Crusty a while back.

Mike, your sheath is ready. I'll post some pics when I get a chance soon. Your knife has new look. I dark-etched the Damascus and added a razor sharp 23 degree cutting edge using the Wicked Edge system. If it's too sharp let me know and I can dull it for you.

Can't wait to check it out! While the scout carry sheath sounded good in theory, it wasn't practical; look forward to actually carrying it.
