You have to be careful, might be a piece of granite tile from Lowes or Home Depot that they paid $6 for.

It is a very nice upgrade, worth buying. Most don’t turn them loose once they have them.

Beautiful, Unbelievable what you can accomplish with the WE. I would almost be afraid to use it. That is what you call a polished edge!

Hi everyone, just wanted to let you all know, I broke down and sent for a Kukri from Nepal. Himalayan imports has some nice ones but they are not cheap, but as close to original design and weights as possible.

Hope you get it soon and enjoy using it. I got the beginners model and it is a great tool. Make sure to check angles from manufacturers so you continue with the correct angle or like me, you’ll mess up one or two knifes.

Thanks for the tips. I have not had mine that long and did not know what to use other than WD40.

Wow, Beautiful collection. I am sure they all sold. If not message me through the forum.

Thank you for the tip. That will definitely help me to figurr out the angles to sharpen at if I cannot find the Mfg. listing.

Nice, change a transmission and eat a T-Bone at the same time!

I was in the Navy from 73-77. Ended up a BM2. I was lucky, bought my first Case XX then for $10 in the ships store. I still have my Marlin Spike I used to carry to do work with wire cable and do back splices in 21 thread.
I would think you could find a Marlin Spike at a Army Navy surplus store somewhere, they are handy when you need to undo a tight knot,
