SOLD: This is a new design, one I think I’ll explore further. It features a 3.5” blade and a 4” handle. A friend commented, “it’s like a sgian dubh that dreamed it was a bowie.” The blade is high carbon damascus and the handle is family heirloom gunstock walnut. The bolster is blued steel with 22 karat gold inlay. #classy #edcknives #handmadeknife #craft

Attention to detail matters. I’ve just sized down some 1-72 screws for a pair of folders I’m working on. The one on the left is .2375” long, an as-manufactured 1/4” screw. The one on the right has been sized down to .2465”, the maximum length allowable in my build. The additional length yields ~18% more thread engagement, which means a sturdier build overall. #attentiontodetail #detailsmatter #foldingknives #foldingknife
