It has been deleted. Trust me, it was a troll for Ganzo.

Because he dragged up an old thread to try and sell Ganzo knives. No wonder there is not much activity on this forum. People like that would be banned on BF.

Tidbits? It would be fine if those people actually had a good reason to comment on a thread rather than to just sell their cheap knives. I would rather have one good knife than a thousand Ganzo’s.

I just noticed that this thread is from 2015. Why are these “Ganzo” people allowed on this forum??

My WE-130 works great using the LAA. It also helps to have the 12″ guide rods. The only blades I have had trouble with are the tiny spey blades. So I sharpen them by hand.

Here is a photo of my Buck 301X clamped up. I have my vise taped up to help keep steel flakes and stuff out of it.

I use the blue painters tape.

I use masking tape on the blades before I clamp them up in my WE130, just in case.

Welcome to the WE family, Todd! I’m glad that everything is working well for you. I own a Pro Pack III as well.

It would be nice to see some photos! Before I bought my CPK U/F, I bought a Buck 120 General. I have always been partial to Buck knives and I just had to have at least one General. I also got three Grade A USA military surplus M7 bayonets for me and my two sons.

I also decided to just buy the Pro Pack III and get it over with because I knew I would eventually end up with one anyway. May as well save a little money up front, and cry once as they say.

I’m the opposite – I bought my WE130 first, and then started buying some knives. I bought a Kershaw Launch 1 because I wanted a decent little auto to clip in a pocket. Then started buying fixed blades. After looking around, I decided that Carothers Performance Knives (CPK), were the knives that fit the bill for me. I love the looks and the…[Read more]

That’s ok. You can use whatever screenname that you want. I just decided to use the same screenname and avatar here, and at BF. This is the first time that I ever did that. I usually use different screennames and avatars for different forums.

You’re very welcome, Wayne. Welcome to the WE family! I use the same user name here as I use on BF.

I don’t know much about the Gen 3 Pro. I figured that the only difference is how they are put together. I like the WE130 because each side is adjusted independently from each other and I can grind asymmetrical grinds if I choose to. Plus it sits lower on the bench or table.

I’m sure that someone with a lot more knowledge that I have will reply…[Read more]

I have a WE130 and don’t know anything about a possible Gen4. But if you’re collecting knives then I would recommend some CPK knives – Carothers Precision Knives. I was fortunate enough to score a gorgeous CPK UF (Utility/Fighter). I also got in on the pre-order of the new DEK1. CPK has a lot of beautiful high quality fixed blade knives that you…[Read more]

Welcome to the WE family, Patrick!

Sounds great! Thanks Clay.

Welcome to the WE family, Ben!

That will work good enough to record the position. I might be able to balance it on there long enough to take a photo of it.

That’s true. It wasn’t that big of a deal to me, so I never said anything. I just take a photo of it. But I was puzzled when I saw it the first time.

Yeah, I just didn’t want to say anything because I figured that I would get slapped around. 😊

But it’s an easy fix. I’m sure that they will get around to it when they get a chance.
