The most recent passing was my last brother on Monday. I wanted to mention this most recent death here because ...

Re: Master Knives
I have that toothpick knife as well. Got it at the flea market 20 years plus ago. It’s well built and holds a decent edge. I lost the thumb stud on it as well. I found a stainless screw and peined it on as a replacement. This is the knife I carry to the beach to cut limes, to the creek if I’m wading...

Re: Gunstock CPM-154 and Vintage Micarta
I enjoyed your detail of the build on Reddit. It’s a very attractive knife as well. You must be a patient person.
So the rocker pin is pre-domed, not peened in and held only by friction?

Re: Follow up question on news
